Conclusion. 330 $aGlobal climate change is expected to produce increased carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere, higher temperatures, aberrant precipitation patterns and a host of other climatic changes that would affect all life on this planet. This review article addresses the impact of climate change on fruit trees and the response of the trees to a changing environment. The response of fruit trees to increasing carbon dioxide levels, phenological changes occurring in the trees themselves due to increased temperature and the lower chilling hours especially in the temperate regions, ecophysiological adaptations of the trees to the changing climate, impact of aberrant precipitation, etc. are reviewed. There is very little data on the impact of rising CO2 levels on fruit tree performance or productivity including the temperate region. Based on a large number of observations on the phenology, there is reason to believe that the flowering and fruiting of most species have advanced by quite a few days, but with variations in different crops and on different continents. The chilling hours have also grown shorter in many regions, causing considerable reductions in yield for several species. In the tropics, there is very little work on fruit trees; however, the available data show that precipitation is a major factor regulating their phenology and yield. The ecophysiological adaptations vary from species to species, and there is a need to develop phenological models in order to estimate the impact of climate change on plant development in different regions of the world. More research is also called for to develop adaptation strategies to circumvent the negative impacts of climate change. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Plant Science,$x2192-1229 606 $aTrees 606 $aClimate change 606 $aAgriculture 606 $aPlant science 606 $aBotany 606 $aTree Biology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L22024 606 $aClimate Change$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U12007 606 $aAgriculture$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L11006 606 $aPlant Sciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L24000 615 0$aTrees. 615 0$aClimate change. 615 0$aAgriculture. 615 0$aPlant science. 615 0$aBotany. 615 14$aTree Biology. 615 24$aClimate Change. 615 24$aAgriculture. 615 24$aPlant Sciences. 676 $a634.045 700 $aRamirez$b Fernando$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0929724 702 $aKallarackal$b Jose$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910768465003321 996 $aResponses of Fruit Trees to Global Climate Change$93657599 997 $aUNINA
