SUMMARY:Science In Our Valley: Heat Stress In Apples CALL IN
DESCRIPTION:Important - this seminar has been changed to a virtual format. We will not be meeting in person at the Research Center! We will resume the Science in the Valley seminar in the fall. \n\nHere is the Zoom link: https://ncesd.zoom.us/j/5098887036\n\nScience In Our Valley is a series of weekly seminars free and open to the public. Each series features the research of local scientists and invited guest speakers. The purpose of the series to encourage the development of an engaged regional scientific community and share the incredible research happening in our own backyard. Physiological and molecular changes associated with acclimation to heat stress in apple fruit Extreme climate events\, such as heatwaves and freezes\, can have large negative impacts on fruit production. Sunburn\, a physiological skin disorder caused by heat and light stress\, causes loss of up to 10% of Washington state apple crops. Current prevention methods include evaporative cooling\, shade netting\, or protectant sprays\, each with their own unique advantages and disadvantages. We are interested in understanding the physiology and molecular mechanisms underlying sunburn and plant fruit acclimation to heat\, so that we can improve the use of tools to avoid sun injury. Here I'll talk about experiments designed to study apple fruit acclimation to high heat and light stresses experienced during a typical growing season\, with the goal of informing and developing strategies to minimize losses due to sunburn.
