Heat Stress in Rice – Physiological Mechanisms and Adaptation Strategies

  • Chapter
  • First Online:

Abstract

Heat stress is a present day hot topic in the world as it throws great challenges before the scientific world by adversely affecting the crop plants and their yield, the need for resilience in all aspects of the crop and resilient varietal identification and improvement are the need of the hour. Here in this review, plant responses to heat stress morpho-anatomical and biochemical changes along the phenology were reported. Importance of physiological parameters in identifying heat tolerant varieties is a necessary prerequisite and is reliable and superior to all the screening procedures. The importance of the photorespiration and its role in final yield loss, as it has interwoven metabolic links with carbon and nitrogen metabolisms are specially focussed on evolutionary aspects. The changes in the hormonal ratio with phenology and molecular responses to heat stress, mechanism of heat tolerance and genetic improvement for heat-stress tolerance, fertigation role in tolerance is discussed.
