Soil water status plays an important role in growth-yield and grape quality of Vitis vinifera (L.). In some cases, periods of moderate water stress have been indicated to exert a positive effect

Most greenhouse climate models are specific for a particular combination of greenhouse type, crop, region and weather conditions. Models are formulated and validated for those conditions and it

Fungal endophytes grow symbiotically inside plants, where some strains promote plant growth and survival under particular abiotic stresses. We colonized tomato plants with systemic (also called

Whiteflies (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) are important insect pests causing serious damage to plants and transmitting hundreds of plant viruses. Climate change is expected to influence life history
