“…The changes in weather patterns, as well as other human activities, could also cause the introduction of different invasive species, such as weeds or parasitic plants, that would further alter the balance within different ecosystems and/or agricultural fields (e.g., López‐Tirado & Gonzalez‐Andújar, 2023; Piwowarczyk & Kolanowska, 2023; Ramesh et al., 2017). These environmental ‘biotic stress’ conditions could occur in different combinations with the abiotic stresses described above inflicting heavy losses to agricultural production and intensifying the risk of forest fires, famine, wars, migration, and other destabilizing events (e.g., Canadell et al., 2021; Challinor et al., 2014; Mourtzinis et al., 2015; Prasch & Sonnewald, 2013a, 2013b; Savary & Willocquet, 2020; Sharma et al., 2023; Zandalinas, Fritschi, et al., 2021).…”

SUMMARYThe complexity of environmental conditions encountered by plants in the field, or in nature, is gradually increasing due to anthropogenic activities that promote global warming, climate change, and increased levels of pollutants. While in the past it seemed sufficient to study how plants acclimate to one or even two different stresses affecting them simultaneously, the complex conditions developing on our planet necessitate a new approach of studying stress in plants: Acclimation to multiple stress conditions occurring concurrently or consecutively (termed, multifactorial stress combination [MFSC]). In an initial study of the plant response to MFSC, conducted with Arabidopsis thaliana seedlings subjected to an MFSC of six different abiotic stresses, it was found that with the increase in the number and complexity of different stresses simultaneously impacting a plant, plant growth and survival declined, even if the effects of each stress involved in such MFSC on the plant was minimal or insignificant. In three recent studies, conducted with different crop plants, MFSC was found to have similar effects on a commercial rice cultivar, a maize hybrid, tomato, and soybean, causing significant reductions in growth, biomass, physiological parameters, and/or yield traits. As the environmental conditions on our planet are gradually worsening, as well as becoming more complex, addressing MFSC and its effects on agriculture and ecosystems worldwide becomes a high priority. In this review, we address the effects of MFSC on plants, crops, agriculture, and different ecosystems worldwide, and highlight potential avenues to enhance the resilience of crops to MFSC.
