PLANT STRESS

Phenological moments

Tipos de estrés en los cultivos - Momentos fenológicos

BUDDING, FLOWERING, FRUIT SETTING OR MATURING

The starting signal common for each process is a change in the endogenous contents of the hormones, which are followed by changes in how the metabolites are distributed internally in the plant. These sensitive phases also coincide with the critical states of the crop to attain optimal production.

The stress factors coincide with the biological stages

Said development is framed by a series of physiological and metabolic changes which allow for the growth of the plant and the differentiation of its various structures, according to the phenological moment in which it finds itself. These changes are often critical for the plant in terms of its susceptibility to any type of alteration to the optimal growing conditions.

The stress factors coincide with the stages in which the plant is more sensitive due to the complex interior changes it suffers which are:

✓ Embryogenic development
✓ Sprouting
✓ Flowering
✓ Setting
✓ Fruit ripening
