To ensure reproductive success, flowering plants produce an excess of pollen to fertilize a limited number of ovules. Pollen grains mature into two distinct subpopulations - those that display high metabolic activity and elevated reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels immediately after hydration (high-ROS/active), and those that maintain an extended period of dormancy with low metabolic activity (low-ROS/inactive/arrested/dormant). We propose that the dormant pollen serves as a backup to provide a second chance for successful fertilization when the 'first wave' of pollen encounters an unpredictable growth condition such as heat stress.

Beyond the increased local occurrence of extreme events high temperatures are becoming an increasingly present limiting factor in crop production. The agriculture in the West of Uzbekistan with very limited rainfalls is highly dependent on irrigation schemes using the Amu Darya water flow.

Atmospheric ammonia (NH) as the most important alkaline gas in the atmosphere has attracted much attention in recent years due to its critical role in haze formation, especially on the North China Plain (NCP). Comprehensive studies are needed for investigating diurnal variations of NH and underlying mechanisms in different seasons and their potential impacts on atmospheric chemistry. In this study, continuous long-term observation (Mar.
