Crop Physiology and Stress

Dear Colleagues,

Agriculture faces challenges such as environmental change and an increasing world population. The increase in the quantity and quality of agricultural products is of great interest. This requires adequate growth and development of the plant and proper crop management. There are several lines of research aimed at studying the physiology of plants and crops. This Collection aims to include the main lines of study that are being developed considering the optimal and stress scenarios that are affecting crops.

This Topical Collection will focus on “Crop Physiology”. We welcome novel research and reviews covering all topics related, but not limited, to environment–plant interaction, stress physiology, plant–microbe interaction, adaptation of plants to the environment, plants’ response to stress, and production and stress.
