Produktinformationen zu „Water Stress and Crop Plants (PDF)“
Plants are subjected to a variety of abiotic stresses such as drought, temperature, salinity, air pollution, heavy metals, UV radiations, etc. To survive under these harsh conditions plants are equipped with different resistance mechanisms which vary from species to species. Due to the environmental fluctuations agricultural and horticultural crops are often exposed to different environmental stresses leading to decreased yield and problems in the growth and development of the crops. Drought stress has been found to decrease the yield to an alarming rate of some important crops throughout the globe. During last few decades, lots of physiological and molecular works have been conducted under water stress in crop plants.
Water Stress and Crop Plants: A Sustainable Approach presents an up-to-date in-depth coverage of drought and flooding stress in plants, including the types, causes and consequences on plant growth and development. It discusses the physiobiochemical, molecular and omic approaches, and responses of crop plants towards water stress. Topics include nutritional stress, oxidative stress, hormonal regulation, transgenic approaches, mitigation of water stress, approaches to sustainability, and modern tools and techniques to alleviate the water stress on crop yields.
This practical book offers pragmatic guidance for scientists and researchers in plant biology, and agribusinesses and biotechnology companies dealing with agronomy and environment, to mitigate the negative effects of stress and improve yield under stress. The broad coverage also makes this a valuable guide enabling students to understand the physiological, biochemical, and molecular mechanisms of environmental stress in plants.

Autoren-Porträt
Dr Parvaiz Ahmad, Department of Botany, S.P. College, University of Kashmir, IndiaDr Ahmad is currently Senior Assistant Professor in the Department of Botany where he teaches on stress physiology and molecular biology. Previous to this he taught at GDC (Boys) Anantnag, Kashmir, India, until May 2013. He has been working on environmental stress in plants since 2001, and his areas of expertise include plant molecular biology (abiotic stress responses in plants (physio-biochemical responses and enzyme activity during stress), developing abiotic tolerant plants), plant microbe interaction (crop improvement through AMF), plant tissue culture, and stress physiology. Dr Ahmad is on the Editorial boards of Botany Research International and Journal of Phytologym, and he is a reviewer on sixteen other international journals including Physiologia Plantarum (Wiley-Blackwell). He has contributed chapters to 26 books and co-edited 14 volumes with Springer, Elsevier and Wiley.
