This book is an overview of our current understanding of aluminium
toxicity and tolerance in plants. It covers all relevant aspects
from molecular and cellular biology, to genetic approaches, root
biology and plant physiology. The contribution of arbuscular
mycorrhizal fungi to alleviating aluminium toxicity is also
discussed. Over 40% of total agricultural land resources are acidic
in nature, with aluminium being the major toxicant. Plant roots are
particularly susceptible to aluminium stress, but much of the
complex mechanism underlying its toxicity and tolerance is unknown
and aluminium stress perception in plants remains poorly
understood. The diverse facets of aluminium stress adaptation
covered in this book are relevant to plant biology students at all
levels, as well researchers and it provides a valuable contribution
to our understanding of plant adaptation to the changing
environment.
