This concept describes plant exposure to simultaneous abiotic and/or biotic stresses rather than isolated single stresses. The review uses it to frame field-relevant plant stress biology.

Field environments often expose plants to more than one abiotic and/or biotic stress at the same time, unlike typical controlled laboratory studies.
Quoted textsource-backed
The field environment is very different from the controlled conditions used in laboratory studies, and often involves the simultaneous exposure of plants to more than one abiotic and/or biotic stress condition
Plant responses to combinations of two or more stress conditions are unique and cannot be directly extrapolated from responses to each stress applied individually.
Quoted textsource-backed
Recent studies have revealed that the response of plants to combinations of two or more stress conditions is unique and cannot be directly extrapolated from the response of plants to each of the different stresses applied individually.
Simultaneous occurrence of different stresses creates complex plant responses because combined-stress responses are controlled by different and sometimes opposing signaling pathways that may interact and inhibit each other.
Quoted textsource-backed
the simultaneous occurrence of different stresses results in a high degree of complexity in plant responses, as the responses to the combined stresses are largely controlled by different, and sometimes opposing, signaling pathways that may interact and inhibit each other
