Ultraviolet-B radiation-mediated responses in plants. Balancing damage and protection.
Seven percent of the electromagnetic radiation emitted from the sun is in the UV range (200–400 nm). As it passes through the atmosphere, the total flux transmitted is greatly reduced, and the composition of the UV radiation is modified. Shortwave UV-C radiation (200–280 nm) is completely absorbed by atmospheric gases. UV-B radiation (280–320 nm) is additionally absorbed by stratospheric ozone ...
متن کاملMorphological and Biochemical Responses of Basil Plant Under Ultraviolet Radiation-B and Deficit Irrigation Under Greenhouse Conditions
Environmental stresses such as deficit irrigation and ultraviolet radiation can influence plant growth and development. Among the environmental variables, ultraviolet radiation is an important factor in plant response to other stresses, such as deficit irrigation. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of ultraviolet B radiation (UV-B), irrigation stress and combined effects o...
متن کاملUltraviolet Radiation Damage in DNA
Introduction The evolution of most forms of life has occurred in an environment exposed to the ultraviolet (UV) and visible radiation emanating from the sun. When molecules in living cells absorb photons in this region of the electromagnetic spectrum they are promoted to excited electronic states and this process can have profound biological consequences. In general, visible wavelengths (400-78...
متن کاملCotton responses to ultraviolet-B radiation: experimentation and algorithm development
The potential impact of an increase in solar ultraviolet-B (UV-B) radiation due to human activity on higher plants has been the subject of many studies. Little work has been carried out so far on cotton responses to enhanced UV-B radiation. The objective of this study was to determine whether or not the current and projected increases in UV-B levels affect cotton growth and development, and to ...
متن کاملField crop responses to ultraviolet-B radiation: a review
This paper provides an overview of existing literature on the ultraviolet-B (UV-B) radiation effects on field crops. Earlier reviews on field crop responses to UV-B considered few physiological processes or crops. For this review, we easily located about 129 studies on 35 crop species published since 1975. Here, we report the effects of UV-B radiation on visual symptoms, leaf ultrastructure and...
