Contents:
Flood tolerance mediated by the rice SUB1A transcription factor -- Drought tolerance mechanisms and their molecular basis -- Stomatal regulation of plant water status -- Root-associated stress response networks -- Plant-low temperature tolerance and its cellular mechanisms -- Salinity tolerance -- Molecular and physiological mechanisms of plant tolerance to toxic metals -- Epigenetic regulation of abiotic stress responses in plants -- Genomics of plant abiotic stress tolerance -- QTL and association mapping for plant abiotic stress tolerance.
Summary: A fully revised review of the latest research in molecular basis of plant abiotic stress response and adaptation Abiotic stressors are non-living environmental stressors that can have a negative impact on a plants ability to grow and thrive in a given environment. Stressors can range from temperature stress (both extreme heat and extreme cold) water stress, aridity, salinity among others. This book explores the full gamut of plant abiotic stressors and plants molecular responses and adaptations to adverse environmental conditions.
