Molecular Response and Genetic Engineering for Abiotic Stress in Plants (Vol.1) , comprehensively and coherently reviews the different abiotic (non-living) stress response
mechanisms in plants with respect to the various aspects of rapidly growing omics
techniques like genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics and strategies
through genetic engineering and molecular breeding for crop improvement. This book provides detailed examination of how genes and metabolites are modulated in plants in
response to various diseases. This edited title provides case studies of several crop plants
concerning genetic engineering strategies which have been used for enhancing
productivity and resilience. This first volume covers the various abiotic stress response
mechanisms in plants within the view of climate change and global food security.
Key Features:
Book explains the different molecular mechanisms and genetic engineering strategies
which have been developed and adopted to cope with consistent environmental
changes and global climate change.
It explores the latest developments concerning abiotic and biotic stress response at
the molecular level for the improvement of crop quality and sustainable agriculture.
It presents an exploration of the challenges and conceivable solutions to improve
yields of the staple of food crops using data on agricultural sciences and omics
technology.
It discovers how the better understanding of molecular mechanisms of plant response to different stress would be used to improve the quantitative and qualitative features
of crop plants and allied areas.
There will be an inclusion of end-of-chapter problems and case studies.
