​Global 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...

This brief reviews the pollination aspects of both wild and domesticated fruit tree species in a global climate change context. The authors identify the link between abiotic factors such as precipitation and severe droughts in the context of tree pollination and climate change.
