This edited book is focused on antioxidant compounds and their
biosynthesis, up-regulation, mechanism of action for selective
bioactivity, targeted role and the advancement of their bioactive
potential during plant-microbe interaction and other stress
conditions. This book also emphasizes on the role of antioxidants
in recruiting beneficial microbes in plant surroundings.
Antioxidants have multiple biological roles in plants especially in
the signalling pathway. These compounds are secondary metabolites
produced besides the primary biosynthetic pathway and are
associated with growth and development. Besides they also have
special role to play during oxidative stress produced via abiotic
stimulants or pathogen attack. This understanding of the
biosynthesis, signaling and function of antioxidant compounds in
plants during stress condition is helpful in restoring plant
ecosystem productivity and improve plant responses to a wide range
of stress conditions. This book is a useful compilation for
researchers and academicians in botany, plant physiology, plant
biochemistry and stress physiology. Also the book serves as reading
material for undergraduate and graduate students of environmental
sciences, agricultural sciences and other plant science courses.

This edited compilation explores role of climate change in plant
stresses, their mitigators, their role, mode of action and,
application. The book discusses molecular and physiological
mechanisms involved in plant stress physiology and the working
mechanism of stress mitigators. It collates information from latest
research conducted on plant stress mitigators, and highlights new
strategies related to beneficial microorganisms that support plants
under various stresses. These mitigators have gained attention of
both farmers and industry for their application in organic farming.
Plant stress mitigators have a huge global market. They follow
different action mechanism for enhancing plant growth and stress
tolerance capacity including nutrient solubilizing and mobilizing,
bicontrol activity against plant pathogens, phytohormone
production, soil conditioning and many more unrevealed
mechanisms. This book elaborates stress alleviation action
of different plant stress mitigators on crops grown under optimal
and sub-optimal growing conditions. It addresses mainly three
subthemes -- (1) Climate change impacts on plant and soil health
(2) Microbe mediated plant stress mitigation and (3) Advances in
plant stress mitigation. The book is a relevant reading for Post
graduate students, researchers in the field of plant stress
physiology, Plant-microbe interaction, biochemistry and plant
molecular biology and industries related to seed production,
biofertilizer and biopesticides.
New and Future Developments in Microbial Biotechnology and
Bioengineering: Sustainable Agriculture: Revitalization through
Organic Products provides a comprehensive overview of different
organic products which work as plant biostimulants, i.e., protein
hydrolysates, chitosan, microbial derived exopolysaccharides,
pectin, nanoparticles, etc. In addition, detailed insights in their
mechanisms for plant growth promotion and stress alleviation are
covered. This volume further discusses the extraction and
formulation of organic products for use in sustainable agriculture.
The application of microbial derived secondary metabolites in crop
protection is also extensively covered. This book will be ideal for
agrochemists, biotechnologists, biochemists, industrialists,
researchers and scientists working on organic farming.
Sustainable Agriculture: Revisiting Green Chemicals discusses green
technologies that help us to understand new green chemicals to
reduce plant pathogens and induce plant growth as well as soil
health. The most used green chemicals are antioxidants,
osmoprotectants, and phytohormones. This book brings together the
most relevant information on how we can use microbial resources to
develop new formulations for these types of chemicals and
technologies for field application. The book offers reference
material to chemical engineers, biochemists, agrochemists,
industrialists, researchers, and scientists working on sustainable
agriculture.

New and Future Developments in Microbial Biotechnology and
Bioengineering: Sustainable Agriculture: Advances in Microbe-Based
Biostimulants describes advances in microbial mechanisms involved
in crop production and stress alleviation. Recent developments in
our understanding of the role of microbes in sustainable
agriculture and disease management have created a highly potential
research area. The plant holobiont has a significant role in stress
signaling, nutrient use efficiency, and soil health and fertility
for sustainable developments. The mycorrhizosphere, hyphosphere,
phyllosphere, rhizosphere and endosphere are critical interfaces
for the exchange of signaling and resources between plants and soil
environment. This book is an ideal reference source for
microbiologists, agrochemists, biotechnologists, biochemists,
industrialists, researchers and scientists working on
agriculturally important microorganisms and their exploitation in
sustainable future applications.
This book provides a comprehensive overview of different
agriculturally important microorganisms and their role as plant
