The European COST Action FA0906 on “UV-B radiation: A specific regulator of plant growth and food quality in a changing climate (UV4growth)” aims to develop an integrated vision of the role of UV-B in plant growth across a range of organizational levels and natural and agricultural systems. In this context, this COST Action in collaboration with the Emirates journal of Food and Agriculture is going to publish a special issue on “Plant responses to ultraviolet radiation”, mainly focusing the roles of antioxidants and pro-oxidants.
