OZONE DAMAGES TO MEDITERRANEAN CROPS: PHYSIOLOGICAL RESPONSES

Ozone Damages to Mediterranean Crops: Physiological Responses

In this brief review we analyzed some aspects of tropospheric ozone damages to crop plants.Specifically, we addressed this issue to Mediterranean environments, where plant response to multiple stresses may either exacerbate or counteract deleterious ozone effects.After discussing the adequacy of current models to predict ozone damages to Mediterran

The critical events for motor-sensory temporal recalibration

Determining if we, or another agent, were responsible for a sensory event can require an accurate sense of timing.Our sense of appropriate timing relationships must, however, be malleable as there is a variable delay between the physical timing of an event and when sensory signals concerning that event are encoded in the brain.One dramatic demonstr
