Yield losses in agriculture will be potentiated in the future by global warming, increasing contamination, and reduced availability of fertile land. The challenge for agriculture of the present and future is that of increasing the food supply for a continuously growing human population under environmental conditions that are deteriorating in many areas of the world. Minimizing the effects of diverse types of abiotic stresses represents a matter of general concern. Research on all topics related to abiotic stress tolerance, from understanding the stress response mechanisms of plants to developing cultivars and crops tolerant to stress, is a priority. This Special Issue is focused on the physiological and molecular characterization of crop resistance to abiotic stresses, including novel research, reviews, and opinion articles covering all aspects of the responses and mechanisms of plant tolerance to abiotic. Contributions on physiological, biochemical, and molecular studies of crop responses to abiotic stresses; the description and role of stress-responsive genes; marker-assisted screening of stress-tolerant genotypes; genetic engineering; and other biotechnological approaches to improve crop tolerance were considered.Biology, life sciencesbicsscResearch & information: generalbicsscabiotic stressAbiotic stressabiotic stress biomarkersagricultureALAalfalfaantioxidant activityantioxidant enzymeantioxidantsaquaporinarbuscular mycorrhizal fungus (AMF)ascorbic acidbarleybean landracesbiochemicalbiologyBrassica rapabreedingcanopy temperatureCapsicum annuumCapsicum annuum L.CBL gene familychitosan oligosaccharidechlorophyllchlorophyll fluorescenceclimate changecoated-urea fertilizercold stresscombined drought and heat stresscommon buckwheatcotyledondroughtdrought stressdrought toleranceeducationeggplantevaluationfemale paniclefloodfloodinggas exchange parametersgene expressiongenetic approachgenetic resourcesgerminationgrowthheat stresshormonal homeostasishumic acidion homeostasision homeostasis-transport determinantslandracelandrace accessionsLEAlignosulfonatelunar phaseslycopenemacromineralsmaizemorphologicalnatural herbicidesnatural polymersnutrientnutrient stressokraosmolytesosmotic stressoxidative stressP-starvationPhaseolusphosphorus use efficiencyphotosynthesisphysicsphysiologicalphysiological activityphysiological responsephysiological traitsphytotoxicityplant breedingplant growthplantspomegranatepostemergencepotassiumprolineProvitamin Apseudo-scienceRhizophagus clarusrootroot anatomyroot hairsroot hydraulic conductanceroot structureROSsalicylic acidsalinitysalinity tolerancesalt stresssalt stress toleranceseaweed extractsecondary metabolitesseedsignaling transduction pathwayssiliconsodiumsodium azideSPADstomatal conductancestrawberrystress responsessummer maizesustainable agriculturetea plantTevang 1 maizetissue-specifictobaccotomato cultivarstotal antioxidantstotal polyphenols contenttraditionstranscription factorstranscriptometranscriptome analysisultrastructurevegetable cropsvegetative growthwater deficitwater stresswater stress tolerancewaterlogging stressweedswheatwild relativexylem vesselyeastzincβ-caroteneBiology, life sciencesResearch & information: generalBoscaiu Monicaedt1304681Fita AnaedtBoscaiu MonicaothFita AnaothBOOK9910557289403321Physiological and Molecular Characterization of Crop Resistance to Abiotic Stresses3027590UNINA05122nam 2201429z- 450 991055711040332120210501(CKB)5400000000040943(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/69006(oapen)doab69006(EXLCZ)99540000000004094320202105d2020 |y 0engurmn|---annantxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierAI AND THE SINGULARITYA FALLACY OR A GREAT OPPORTUNITY?Basel, SwitzerlandMDPI - Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute20201 online resource (284 p.)3-03936-483-9 3-03936-484-7 "AI and the Technological Singularity: A Fallacy or a Great Opportunity" is a collection of essays that addresses the question of whether the technological singularity-the notion that AI-based computers can program the next generation of AI-based computers until a singularity is achieved, where an AI-based computer can exceed human intelligence-is a fallacy or a great opportunity. The group of scholars that address this question have a variety of positions on the singularity, ranging from advocates to skeptics. No conclusion can be reached, as the development of artificial intelligence is still in its infancy, and there is much wishful thinking and imagination in this issue rather than trustworthy data. The reader will find a cogent summary of the issues faced by researchers who are working to develop the field of artificial intelligence and, in particular, artificial general intelligence. The only conclusion that can be reached is that there exists a variety of well-argued positions as to where AI research is headed.AI AND THE SINGULARITYInformation technology industriesbicsscabductive reasoningAccelerated Changeaccess consciousnessanthropologyapopheniaArtificial (General) Intelligenceartificial general intelligenceArtificial General Intelligence (AGI)artificial intelligenceartificial intelligence (AI)Artificial Intelligence (AI)Artificial Social Intelligence (ASI)autogenous intelligenceautomated journalismbootstrap fallacycognitioncompetitioncomplexitycomplexity breakcomplexity fallacycomputercomputersconceptconsciousnesscooperationcosmic evolutioncyborgdeep neural networksembodied cognitionembodimentemotionevolutionexperiencefigure/groundfuture of newsfuturesfuturism and futurologyhard science fictionheterogeneityinformationinformation frictioninformation qualityintelligenceintelligent machinesintuitionlanguagelogiclovemachine evolution and optimizationmachine learningmachine replicationmeaningmedia ecologymetasystem transitionsmisinformationmodels of consciousnessnetworked mindsnon-axiomatic reasoning systempareidoliapatterningpatternsperceptphenomenal consciousnessphilosophyphilosophy of informationrecursive self-improvementresearch focused social networkrobo-journalismrobotsselfself-modifying softwareself-organizationset theorysingularitySingularityskepticismsocial sciencessuperintelligenceteam sportstechnical singularitytechnological singularitytechnological SingularityTechnological SingularityTuring testunderstandingvalue alignmentwisdomwriting algorithmsInformation technology industriesLogan Robert Kedt1299744Braga AdrianaedtLogan Robert KothBraga AdrianaothBOOK9910557110403321AI AND THE SINGULARITY3025250UNINA
