Climate-Resilient Agriculture, Vol 1 : Crop Responses and Agroecological Perspectives Hardback
Edited by Mirza Hasanuzzaman
Hardback
Description
Under ongoing climate change, natural and cultivated habitats of major food crops are being continuously disturbed.
Such condition accelerates to impose stress effects like abiotic and biotic stressors.
Drought, salinity, flood, cold, heat, heavy metals, metalloids, oxidants, irradiation etc. are important abiotic stresses; and diseases and infections caused by plant pathogens viz. fungal agents, bacteria and viruses are major biotic stresses.
As a result, these harsh environments affect crop productivity and its biology in multiple complex paradigms.
As stresses become the limiting factors for agricultural productivity and exert detrimental role on growth and yield of the crops, scientists and researchers are challenged to maintain global food security for a rising world population. This two-volume work highlights the fast-moving agricultural research on crop improvement through the stress mitigation strategies, with specific focuses on crop biology and their response to climatic instabilities.
Together with "Climate Resilient Agriculture, Vol 2: Agro-Biotechnological Advancement for Crop Production", it covers a wide range of topics under environmental challenges, agronomy and agriculture processes, and biotechnological approaches, uniquely suitable for scientists, researchers and students working in the fields of agriculture, plant science, environmental biology and biotechnology.
