Title
Heat Stress in Maize: Understanding the Physiological and Biochemical Impacts
Doddaghatta H. Raviteja; Swamy N.; Ranjeetha R.; et al. Journal of Advances in Biology & Biotechnology 2024. doi:10.9734/jabb/2024/v27i81123
Other claims from this paper (5)
- Observation Heat stress above 35°C causes irreversible damage to maize nutrient uptake, chlorophyll content and biomass accumulation.
- Observation Heat stress during the reproductive phase leads to pollen sterility, poor seed set and grain abortion in maize.
- Association Maize yields are reduced by an average of 7.4% per degree Celsius rise in temperature.
- Association Heat stress increases oxidative stress in maize and impairs plant growth.
- Association Plant growth regulators such as gibberellic acid, abscisic acid and salicylic acid may enhance maize resilience to heat stress.
