Continuous discoveries in plant and crop physiology have resulted
in an abundance of new information since the publication of the
third edition of the Handbook of Plant and Crop Physiology.
Following its predecessors, the fourth edition of this
well-regarded handbook offers a unique, comprehensive, and complete
collection of topics in the field of plant and crop physiology.
Divided into eleven sections, for easy access of information, this
edition contains more than 90 percent new material, substantial
revisions, and two new sections. The handbook covers the physiology
of plant and crop growth and development, cellular and molecular
aspects, plant genetics and production processes. The book presents
findings on plant and crop growth in response to climatic changes,
and considers the potential for plants and crops adaptation,
exploring the biotechnological aspects of plant and crop
improvement. This content is used to plan, implement, and evaluate
strategies for increasing plant growth and crop yield. Readers
benefit from numerous tables, figures, case studies and
illustrations, as well as thousands of index words, all of which
increase the accessibility of the information contained in this
important handbook. New to the Edition: Contains 37 new chapters
and 13 extensively revised and expanded chapters from the third
edition of this book. Includes new or modified sections on
soil-plant-water-nutrients-microorganisms physiological relations;
and on plant growth regulators, both promoters and inhibitors.
Additional new and modified chapters cover the physiological
responses of lower plants and vascular plants and crops to
metal-based nanoparticles and agrichemicals; and the growth
responses of plants and crops to climate change and environmental
stresses. With contributions from 95 scientists from 20 countries,
this book provides a comprehensive resource for research and for
university courses, covering plant and crop physiological responses
under normal and stressful conditions ranging from cellular aspects
to whole plants.
