• Plant Pollinator interactions in high temperatures

  Leaves can cool themselves through transpiration, while flowers cannot. For this reason, better pollination is achieved through shading in certain situations [...] there are severe implications for yield and quality. It is essential to point out that exposure to maximum temperatures of more than 30° C for a couple of hours [...] pollination to return to normal. 2 Figure 2: The Stigma is protruding through the protective flower cone because of high 24 hour temperature At temperatures

The wilting or yellowing of onion leaves is one of the most obvious signs [...] These nematodes are applied by spraying. After application, the nematodes set out in search of the larvae, eventually killing them. The fact that this biological
