Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Climate and meteorological factors influence the phenology, morphological, physiological and biochemical characteristics of horticultural crops. The impact of each abiotic factor depends on the quantity, intensity, duration and manner of their application to the plants. Plants are often subjected to stresses that also have an impact on economic production in terms of yield and quality. The purpose of this Special Issue is to contribute to the dissemination of new knowledge and results related to the effect of climatic factors on the phenological, morphological, physiological and biochemical properties of horticultural crops. New contributions are expected regarding the behavior of some horticultural species and varieties, cultivated in different areas. New results from varieties resistant to climate change and current societal needs are welcome. Current requirements include the adaptability of cultivars to achieve sustainable and competitive ecosystems.
