New Frontiers in Stress Management for Durable Agriculture
Using accessible farming practices to meet the growing demands on agriculture is likely to result in more intense competition for natural resources, increased greenhouse gas emissions, and further deforestation and land degradation, which will in turn produce additional stress in the soil-water-plant-animal continuum. Stress refers to any unfavorable force or condition that inhibits customary functioning in plants. Concurrent manifestations of different stresses (biotic and abiotic) are very frequent in the environment of plants, which consequently reduces yield. Better understanding stress not only changes our perspective on the current environment, but can also bring a wealth of benefits, ...
Plant Stress Tolerance
Plant Stress Tolerance: Molecular Mechanisms and Breeding Strategies, Volume One provides effective ways for organizing precision and sustainable agriculture. The methods include the use of advanced molecular techniques covering multiple omics, high-throughput technology, computational biology, epigenetic manipulation, and CRISPR genome editing. These methods can advance the development of high-yield, high-quality, and stress-resilient crops that meet the requirements for supporting global food and nutrition security. The book proposes strategies for omics-assisted and speed breeding techniques, exploring molecular mechanisms of plant abiotic stress caused by temperature, drought, salinity, ...
Environmental Physiology

Genomic Designing for Abiotic Stress Resistant Vegetable Crops
This book presents deliberations on molecular and genomic mechanisms underlying the interactions of crop plants to the abiotic stresses caused by heat, cold, drought, flooding, submergence, salinity, acidity, etc., important to develop resistant crop varieties. Knowledge on the advanced genetic and genomic crop improvement strategies including molecular breeding, transgenics, genomic-assisted breeding, and the recently emerging genome editing for developing resistant varieties in vegetable crops is imperative for addressing FHNEE (food, health, nutrition, energy, and environment) security. Whole genome sequencing of these crops followed by genotyping-by-sequencing has provided precise inform...
Multiple Abiotic Stress Tolerances in Higher Plants
In the last 50 years, classical breeding has played a significant role in achieving higher crop productivity, but major crops have reached a plateau in their yield potential. Therefore, the current focus for sustainable intensification of agriculture is the use of biotechnological approaches to enhance the yield potential by combating the yield losses that occur due to abiotic stresses. The abiotic stresses are governed by multigenes, and therefore, a holistic approach is needed to get success in imparting stress tolerance to enhance the yield potential of our crops. Plants face multiple stress conditions during their life stages and adopt several physiological, biochemical, and molecular st...
