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
Dieses neue Buch des bekannten Herausgeberteams bietet einen umfassenden Überblick über die molekularen Grundlagen der Reaktion von Pflanzen auf externe Stressfaktoren wie Dürre oder Schwermetalle und unterstützt die Entwicklung stressresistenter Nutzpflanzen.
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 ...
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...
Crop Improvement Under Adverse Conditions
Plant development and productivity are negatively regulated by various environmental stresses. Abiotic stress factors such as heat, cold, drought, and salinity represent key elements limiting agricultural productivity worldwide. Thus, developing crop plants with the ability to tolerate abiotic stresses is a critical need which demands modern novel strategies for the thorough understanding of plant response to abiotic stresses. Crop Improvement under Adverse Conditions will serve as a cutting-edge resource for researchers and students alike who are studying plant abiotic stress tolerance and crop improvement. The book presents the latest trends and developments in the field, including the impact of extreme events on salt tolerant forest species of Andaman & Nicobar Islands, the overlapping horizons of salicylic acid in different stresses, and fast and reliable approaches to crop improvement through In Vitro haploid production. Written by renowned experts and featuring useful illustrations and photographs, Crop Improvement under Adverse Conditions is a concise and practical update on plant abiotic stress tolerance and crop improvement.
Legume Nitrogen Fixation in Soils with Low Phosphorus Availability
This thoughtful and provocative book provides a concise, up-to-date presentation of how current and projected future phosphorus scarcity will affect legume growth and their symbiotic nitrogen-fixing capabilities. It is a timely examination of the physiological and molecular responses of nodules to phosphorous deficiency in attempt to identify common principles. Students and researchers in the many disciplines related to crop productivity will find this title an exciting contribution in the area of plant stress physiology. The knowledge in this volume can also aid plant breeders, particularly through new methods of genetic engineering, in developing unique and adaptive cultivars with higher s...
