Summary
This narrative review synthesises knowledge on heat tolerance in plants, covering the physiological, biochemical and molecular mechanisms by which plants respond to and tolerate elevated temperatures. The work appears intended to inform understanding of plant adaptation to thermal stress, with potential relevance to crop resilience under changing climate conditions.
Regional applicability
As a mechanisms-focused review without geographically specific data, findings are broadly applicable; however, application to United Kingdom crop production and breeding would require integration with locally relevant crop species, growing season temperatures, and climate projections.
Key measures
Heat tolerance mechanisms, physiological and biochemical responses to temperature stress, plant adaptation pathways
Outcomes reported
The review examines physiological, biochemical and molecular mechanisms underlying heat tolerance in plants. It likely covers adaptive responses to elevated temperatures relevant to crop production and climate resilience.
