Heat stress effects and management in wheat. A review (2017, background): “Thus, heat stress has appeared as a great menace to successful crop production in the world (Kumar et al. 2012; Lobell and Gourdji 2012; Gourdji et al. 2013).”
Wheat yield loss attributable to heat waves, drought and water excess at the global, national and subnational scales (2017, background): “…variability have shown that higher than optimal temperatures during the growing season are generally accelerating the progress of the plant phenological stages, affecting photosynthesis and its balance with respiration, and reducing the final yield (Lobell and Gourdji 2012, Rezaei et al 2015).”
A review of the global climate change impacts, adaptation, and sustainable mitigation measures (2022, background): “It is anticipated that the increase in world average temperature will also cause a substantial reduction in yield (Hatfield et al. 2011; Lobell and Gourdji 2012).”
Global gross primary productivity and water use efficiency changes under drought stress (2017, background): “Lobell and Gourdji (2012) alleged that 5% decline of global crop yields occurred due to each 1 °C of warming, and that the average decline of crop yield was at 3.6% due to warming impacts in the past decades.”
Climate change impacts on agriculture in 2050 under a range of plausible socioeconomic and emissions scenarios (2015, background): “For example, current crop models (together with limited inputs from GCMs) are not able to capture some potentially negative effects of climate change, such as the effects of extreme temperatures and precipitation, changes in pests and diseases, and ozone levels (Lobell and Gourdji 2012).”
Unraveling Field Crops Sensitivity to Heat Stress：Mechanisms, Approaches, and Future Prospects (2018, background): “Similarly, it has been found that temperatures beyond 34 ◦C enhance the rates of senescence based on nine years of satellite data of wheat grown in northern India, thereby resulting in a significant reduction in yield [48].”
Global food self-sufficiency in the 21st century under sustainable intensification of agriculture (2020, background): “Climate change will alter yields through changes in temperature, precipitation, insect pests, and atmospheric concentration of CO2 (Lobell and Gourdji 2012, Warszawski et al 2014, Deutsch et al 2018, Ostberg et al 2018).”
Climate Change Impacts and Adaptation Strategies of Agriculture in Mediterranean-Climate Regions (MCRs) (2019, background): “Indeed, the predicted scenarios for CC, leading to higher temperatures and water deficit, will impose severe limitations on crop yield and harvested area [18,47,62], and will restrict the latitudes and soils where economically important species can be grown.”
