Abiotic Stress and Legumes: Tolerance and Management is the first
book to focus on the ability of legume plants to adapt effectively
to environmental challenges. Using the -omic approach, this book
takes a targeted approach to understanding the methods and means of
ensuring survival and maximizing the productivity of the legume
plant by improving tolerance to environmental /abiotic stress
factors including drought, temperature change, and other
challenges. The book presents a comprehensive overview of the
progress that has been made in identifying means of managing
abiotic stress effects, specifically in legumes, including the
development of several varieties which exhibit tolerance through
high yield using transcriptomic, proteomic, metabolomic and ionomic
approaches. Further, exogenous application of various stimulants
such as plant hormones, nutrients, sugars, and polyamines has
emerged as an alternative strategy to improve productivity under
these environmental challenges. Abiotic Stress and Legumes:
Tolerance and Management examines these emerging strategies and
serves as an important resource for researchers, academicians and
scientists, enhancing their knowledge and aiding further research.
Plant Life under Changing Environment: Responses and Management
presents the latest insights, reflecting the significant progress
that has been made in understanding plant responses to various
changing environmental impacts, as well as strategies for
alleviating their adverse effects, including abiotic stresses.
Growing from a focus on plants and their ability to respond, adapt,
and survive, Plant Life under Changing Environment: Responses and
Management addresses options for mitigating those responses to
ensure maximum health and growth. Researchers and advanced students
in environmental sciences, plant ecophysiology, biochemistry,
molecular biology, nano-pollution climate change, and soil
pollution will find this an important foundational resource.
Nitric Oxide in Plant Biology: An Ancient Molecule with Emerging
Roles is an extensive volume which provides a broad and detailed
overview of Nitric Oxide (NO) in plant biology. The book covers the
entirety of the crucial role NO plays in the plant lifecycle, from
the regulation of seed germination and growth to synthesis,
nitrogen fixation and stress response. Beginning with NO production
and NO homeostasis, Nitric Oxide in Plant Biology goes on to cover
a variety of NO roles, with a focus on NO signalling, crosstalk and
stress responses. Edited by leading experts in the field and
featuring the latest research from laboratories from across the
globe, it is a comprehensive resource of interest to students and
researchers working in plant physiology, agriculture,
biotechnology, and the pharmaceutical and food industries.
Hydrogen Sulfide in Plant Biology: Past and Present includes 17
chapters, with topics from cross-talk and lateral root development
under stress, to post-translational modifications and disease
resistance. With emerging research on the different roles and
applications of H2S, this title compiles the latest advances of
this key signaling molecule. The development of a plant requires
complex signaling of various molecules like H2S in order to achieve
regulated and proper development, hence hydrogen sulfide (H2S) has
emerged as an important signaling molecule that regulates nearly
each and every stage of a plant's lifecycle. Edited by leading
experts in the field, this is a must-read for scientists and
researchers interested in plant physiology, biochemistry and
ecology.
Plant Metabolites and Regulation Under Environmental Stress
presents the latest research on both primary and secondary
metabolites. The book sheds light on the metabolic pathways of
primary and secondary metabolites, the role of these metabolites in
plants, and the environmental impact on the regulation of these
metabolites. Users will find a comprehensive, practical reference
that aids researchers in their understanding of the role of plant
metabolites in stress tolerance.
