Climate Change and Crop Stress: Molecules to Ecosystems

Editat de Arun K.Shanker, Chitra Shanker, Anjali Anand, M. Maheswari
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 18 noi 2021
Climate Change and Crop Stress: Molecules to Ecosystems expounds on the transitional period where science has progressed to ‘post-genomics’ and the gene editing era, putting field performance of crops to the forefront and challenging the production of practical applicability vs. theoretical possibility. Researchers have concentrated efforts on the effects of environmental stress conditions such as drought, heat, salinity, cold, or pathogen infection which can have a devastating impact on plant growth and yield. Designed to deliver information to combat stress both in isolation and through simultaneous crop stresses, this edited compilation provides a comprehensive view on the challenges and impacts of simultaneous stresses.


  • Presents a multidisciplinary view of crop stresses, empowering readers to quickly align their individual experience and perspective with the broader context
  • Combines the mechanistic aspects of stresses with the strategic aspects
  • Presents both abiotic and biotic stresses in a single volume
