“…The consequences of the late establishment of these stands were weak autumn growth [20], low accumulation of nitrogen before winter (less than 10 kg•ha -1 ), weed infestation in autumn (96.8, 96.9 and 95.3), which was not dealt with in spring (95.3, chickweed) and, in some cases, soil compaction (96.8 and 96.9) and waterlogging (95.3). Winter rape is known to be highly sensitive to soil compaction and waterlogging [1,31].…”

International audienceWe assessed new crop management systems for winter oilseed rape based on very early sowing dates, with a view to improving environmental performance without decreasing economic benefits. In a network of 36 trials conducted over 3 years in France, the new systems turned out to be more effective than current systems in terms of environmental variables: absorption of almost all the mineral N present in the soil in autumn, even after organic manure spreading; nitrate concentration of the percolated water below 50 mg $\cdot$ l$^{-1}$, and lower levels of molluscicide use, even in years of heavy slug infestation. The gross margin was optimised by very early sowing, which in most trials resulted in yields equal to or greater than those for crops sown at the usual date. We typed the trials, linking the difference in yield between the two crop management systems to various limiting factors (crop establishment, stem canker and nitrogen nutrition), to identify situations appropriate for the new crop management systems.Évaluation en France d'itinéraires techniques du colza d'hiver favorables à l'environnement, basés sur des semis très précoces. Notre objectif est l'évaluation de nouveaux itinéraires techniques du colza basés sur des semis très précoces, afin d'améliorer le bilan environnemental de cette culture sans affecter son bilan économique. Sur un réseau de 36 essais pendant 3 années en France, les nouveaux itinéraires techniques se sont avérés plus efficaces que les itinéraires techniques actuellement recommandés au niveau des performances environnementales : absorption, au cours de l'automne, de la quasi totalité de l'azote minéral du sol même après épandage d'effluent organique ; teneur en nitrate de l'eau percolée inférieure à 50 mg $\cdot$ l$^{-1}$ ; réduction de l'emploi de molluscicides, même en année de forte infestation de limaces. En terme de marge brute, les résultats moyens furent favorables aux semis très précoces qui permirent, sur la majorité des essais, un rendement supérieur ou égal à celui des semis à date normale. Une typologie des essais reliant la différence de rendement entre les deux itinéraires techniques à différents facteurs limitants (implantation de la culture, phoma, nutrition azotée), est utilisée afin de définir le domaine de validité des nouveaux itinéraires techniques

“…2005). Significant increases in soluble protein content and total amino acids are observed under waterlogged conditions in brassica species (Ashraf and Mehmood 1990). Salt stress is also found to change composition of N‐containing compounds, especially of proteins and free amino acids (Zörb et al.…”

“…WL is reported to reduce carbohydrate content in leaves of pigeon pea (Kumutha et al 2008), and affect nitrogen transport in soybean (Puiatti andSodek 1999, Mendoza et al 2005). Significant increases in soluble protein content and total amino acids are observed under waterlogged conditions in brassica species (Ashraf and Mehmood 1990). Salt stress is also found to change composition of N-containing compounds, especially of proteins and free amino acids (Zörb et al 2004, Keutgen andPawelzik 2008), increase accumulation of amino acids (Gzik 1996, Teixeira andPereira 2007) and result in disorders in protein synthesis in plants (Saqib et al 2005).…”

Salinity and waterlogging are worldwide environmental constraints to crop production. In this study, plants of winter wheat were grown in pots in the semi‐field with transparent waterproof top and subjected to salt (ST), waterlogging (WL) and their combination (SW) stresses since 7 days after anthesis (DAA). The effects of ST, WL and SW on the contents of sugars, free amino acid (FAA), starch, protein, Na+ and K+ in flag leaves, stems and grains were investigated during grain filling stage. ST and SW significantly reduced total soluble sugars (TSS) and sucrose contents in both vegetative organs and grains, and fructan content in stems. ST and SW also reduced FAA contents in stems and grains, whereas they increased FAA content in flag leaves. This resulted in a significant decrease in the ratio of TSS to FAA under ST and SW stresses in flag leaves. Moreover, ST and SW increased Na+ content, whereas they reduced K+ content, which resulted in a reduction in K+/Na+ ratio, especially during the late filling stage. In addition, ST and SW caused a reduction in starch and protein accumulations in grains. Finally, the temporal (time‐course) and spatial (different organs) responses of sugars, FAA, Na+ and K+ to ST, SW and WL and their relationships to grain starch and protein formation were further investigated.

“…Consequently, there is a large scale reduction in agricultural production especially on a flatland or places near the river due to waterlogging [28]. Waterlogging occur as result of leakage from irrigation canals or pure surface drainage but predominantly caused by heavy rainfall in such area [29]. As a result, there is increased soil compaction, also the available oxygen (O 2 ) for plants cells are reduced because the diffusion process of O 2 is slow in ponding water [29,30].…”

The increase in the carbon-dioxide (CO 2) present in the atmosphere as a result of human activities affects the ambient temperature, and rainfall pattern in terms of season, duration, intensity of sunshine, increased drought periods, waterlogging, and increased evapotranspiration. This influence negatively the development, yield and quality of the plants grown under this condition. The quests to produce stress tolerant/resistant plants and increase crop productivity have led to the study of plant stresses, their response to different stress type and stress management procedures in plants. This chapter has discussed in details the different abiotic stressors in plants and how they are being influenced by climate change, the response of these plants to different abiotic stresses or a combination of stresses, and abiotic stress management.
