Integrated Plant Stress Responses: Biotic and Abiotic Challenges

Bys: G, Andonissamy Daniel and K, Nishanthini

This forthcoming publication, "Integrated Plant Stress Responses: Biotic and Abiotic Challenges" offers a comprehensive exploration of the remarkable resilience of plants in the face of diverse environmental challenges. From a human perspective, it demystifies how plants bravely endure and adapt to harsh conditions like droughts, salinity, extreme temperatures, and floods, while also battling microscopic invaders such as fungi, bacteria, and viruses, along with the threats of insect herbivory, nematodes, and competitive weeds. Scientifically, the book provides an in-depth look into plant stress biology, detailing the multi-level response mechanisms from molecular to whole-plant strategies that enable survival. It meticulously dissects major abiotic and biotic stresses, culminating in a synthesis of cutting-edge genetic and breeding approaches, including molecular breeding and biotechnological strategies, aimed at enhancing plant resilience and developing stress-tolerant crop varieties. This volume serves as an essential resource for anyone interested in the fascinating world of plant survival, from general readers to researchers and students in plant science and agriculture.
