Can Exogenously Applied Melatonin Improve the Tolerance of Strawberries Irrigated with Different Drought Stress Strategies?

Melatonin Mitigates the Impacts of Recurrent Water Deficit in Robusta Coffee Plants by Modulating Photosynthesis and Biomass Partitioning

Melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine) is a regulatory molecule with potential to increase plant tolerance to water stress by modulating stomatal function, redox balance, and photosynthetic efficiency. However, its physiological effects depend on dose, species, and stress intensity, and studies on Coffea canephora un...

Evaluation of fenugreek under water stress: agronomic traits, seed oil quality and antioxidant capacity

Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum L.) is rich in seed bioactive compounds, and its yield depends on irrigation. The effects of deficit irrigation treatments on yield, water-use efficiency, and seed quality traits remain insufficiently characterized. This two-year field study (2021–2022) evaluated five irrigation lev...

The effects of silicon pre – treatment on physiological and biochemical responses of maize under water deficit

The present study was conducted to investigate the effects of silicon (Si) pre – treatment under different irrigation regimes on growth, gas – exchange properties and physiological features of maize in the “Selcuk University, Agriculture Faculty, Field Crops Department, Research and Practicing Station of Prof. Dr. Abdu...

Exogenously Applied Salicylic Acid and Putrescine Enhanced Terminal Drought Tolerance in Wheat via Modulation in Photosynthetic Pigments, Antioxidants Defence Mechanism and Accumulation Osmo-Metabolites

Salicylic Acid and Iron Improve Maize Yield and Quality under Water Deficit

Adaptation approaches for irrigation and foliar feeding of micronutrient in Camelina production

Climate change and its effects on water scarcity in semi-arid regions have intensified, underscoring the importance of conserving water during non-sensitive growth stages. Additionally, climate-smart management practices, such as the foliar application of micronutrients, can influence crop yields. Experiments were cond...
