The book inculcates a holistic approach to improve crop
productivity and quality for ensuring food security and nutrition
to all. This warrants to identify various stress conditions
prevalent globally and tailor crop adaptability and productivity to
the maximum accordingly, employing physio-molecular modern tools
and techniques with judicious amalgamation with conventional crop
husbandry. As a result, the book chapters encompass diverse
environmental factors, internal physio-molecular processes and
their modulations with a final goal of expanding area under
cultivation by utilization of constraint terrains of poor site
quality and augmenting sustainable crop productivity and quality on
the face of rapidly changing climate. The book includes role of
plant hormones, nano-sensors, nanomaterials etc. in stress
tolerance responses, capturing recent advancement in the field of
stress tolerance, enlarging scope of coverage by gleaning modern
literature and providing glimpses of futuristic scenario of
agriculture practices that can render 'balance staple food rich in
nutrition, vitamins and minerals' to teeming billions of global
human populations. Thus, the book provides a comprehensive overview
of the role of stress environment and understanding stress
physiology for developing stress tolerant crops. The book covers
current knowledge and future prospects to achieve enhanced food
security under stress environment of crops. The renowned
contributors elegantly crafted each chapter, suited alike to both
classroom texts for graduate students and reference material for
researchers. The language and style are simple and lucid with
liberal use of illustrations. This book should be on the shelf of
university/ personal libraries for inquisitive students and
enlightened researchers.
