Abstract

Innovative approaches are required for improving crop productivity and quality to meet the increasing demand for providing food, energy, and other services for growing populations in a changing climate. The colloquium sponsored by the Environmental Stress Physiology (STRS) Working Group at the 2011 American Society for Horticultural Science (ASHS) annual conference served as a forum to bring together several of the emerging methods for diagnosing, monitoring, and mitigating crop environmental stress with an emphasis on horticultural, physiological, and ecological approaches. These methods are likely to be readily applicable for many research areas in specialty crops in the context of climate change. The colloquium articles in this volume provide a foundation and context to lead dialogues and initiate research themes for developing adaptive strategies to minimize climate impacts on horticultural crop production in a changing climate.
