Maintenance of Genome Integrity: DNA Damage Sensing, Signaling, Repair and Replication in Plants
Environmental stresses and metabolic by-products can severely affect the integrity of genetic information by inducing DNA damage and impairing genome stability. As a consequence, plant growth and productivity are irreversibly compromised. To overcome genotoxic injury, plants have evolved complex strategies relying on a highly efficient repair machinery that responds to sophisticated damage perception/signaling networks. The DNA damage signaling network contains several key components: DNA damage sensors, signal transducers, mediators, and effectors. Most of these components are common to other eukaryotes but some features are unique to the plant kingdom. ATM and ATR are well-conserved member...
Plant Parasitic Nematode–Host Interactions: Mechanisms and Exploitative Management Strategies
Plant parasitic nematodes (PPN) are pathogens common in global agricultural systems. There is at least one species of PPN for all major food crops and yield losses caused by nematodes threaten global food security. Management of PPN is challenging and varies greatly between different countries, crops, and nematodes. However, a recurring theme for management is improving understanding of the nematode-host interaction. Exploiting this information could help create better PPN control methods, lessening losses associated with PPN by providing more economical and sustainable solutions. Interpreting mechanisms fundamental to host-parasite interactions is a rapidly evolving area. This research offers novel insights about PPN biology and potential routes for exploiting this data for the development of improved PPN control. Nematode effector proteins are core components of parasitism and disease development. Resistant plants can suppress PPN through a variety of different mechanisms upon recognition of effectors. Understanding targets of these proteins and modifying them using gene editing techniques could assist host resistance.
Biotechnology of Major Cereals
Biotechnology of Major Cereals will focus on the recent advances and future prospects in cereal biotechnology. The first part of the book will cover the world’s major cereals and focus on new developments and trends. The second part will be technology rather than species-led, detailing fundamental developments in technologies and significant target traits.
Abiotic Stress Response in Plants

Global Climate Change and Plant Stress Management
Global Climate Change and Plant Stress Management Understand the impact of climate change on plant growth with this timely introduction Climate change has had unprecedented consequences for plant metabolism and plant growth. In botany, adverse effects of this kind are called plant stress conditions; in recent years, the plant stress conditions generated by climate change have been the subject of considerable study. Plants have exhibited increased photosynthesis, increased water requirements, and more. There is an urgent need to understand and address these changes as we adapt to drastic changes in the global climate. Global Climate Change and Plant Stress Management presents a comprehensive ...
Hazardous and Trace Materials in Soil and Plants
Hazardous and Trace Materials in Soil and Plants: Sources, Effects and Management explores the latest advancements in reducing, avoiding and eliminating soil contaminants that challenge the health and safety of agricultural plants. With a focus on minimizing the production of those hazardous substances, controlling their distribution and ensuring safe utilization, the book explores each contributing area and provides insights toward improved, sustainable and secure production. This is an excellent reference resource on both current research and future directions from laboratory research to field applications. The combined impacts of climate change and industrialization have led to increased ...
Novel Aspects of Nucleolar Functions in Plant Growth and Development
The nucleolus is a prominent nuclear domain that is common to eukaryotes. Since the nucleolus was first described in the 1830s, its identity had remained a mystery for longer than 100 years. Major advances in understanding of the nucleolus were achieved through electron microscopic and biochemical studies in the 1960s to 1970s followed by molecular biological studies. These studies finally established the view of the nucleolus that it is a large aggregate of RNA-protein complexes associated with the rRNA gene region of chromosome DNA, serving mainly as a site of ribosome biogenesis, where pre-rRNA transcription, pre-rRNA processing, and ribosome assembly occur. This function of the nucleolus...
