Clusia minor L., a C3-CAM intermediate, and Clusia multiflora H. B. K., a C3 obligate, present two physiotypes of a similar morphotype occurring sympatrically in the field. Both species, exposed 2 days to high light, show similar responses to this kind of stress: (i) the level of xanthophyll pigments in tested plants during the daycourse adapts to stress, (ii) the levels of antheraxanthin and z...

The creation of salt-tolerant wheat genotypes can provide a basis for sustainable production in areas that are particularly sensitive to the impacts climate change on soil salinity. This study aimed select could serve as genetic resource breeding salinity tolerance. A two-year experiment was established with 27 genotypes, grown stress and non-stress conditions. Agronomic parameters (plant heigh...

Background and Aim: Dentistry is among the most stressful professions. Dentists’ occupational stress usually begins during their university education. This study aimed to assess the relationship between the level of stress experienced by dental students during endodontic treatment and their coping strategies. Materials and Methods: This descriptive study was conducted on 204 fifth and sixth ...

Electro-thermo-elastic stress analysis of piezoelectric polymeric thick-walled cylinder reinforced by boronnitride nanotubes (BNNTs) subjected to electro-thermo-mechanical fields is presented in this article. The electro-thermo-elastic properties of piezoelectric fiber reinforced composite (PEFRC) was studied by a modified XY micromechanical model capable of exhibiting full coupling relati...
