Книга "Plant-Environment Interaction" (Взаимодействие растений и окружающей среды) посвящена изучению адаптации растений к изменяющейся окружающей среде и выживанию в условиях экстремальных факторов, таких как изменение климата, загрязнение окружающей среды и другие виды антропогенного воздействия. Авторы книги, в основном эксперты в области растительной биологии, предоставляют самые актуальные исследования и обсуждения в области растительной физиологии, климатических изменений, агрономии и лесного хозяйства, иногда с молекулярной точки зрения, чтобы донести глубокое понимание влияния окружающей среды на растения, их реакций на окружающую среду, а также способов уменьшения негативных последствий и повышения урожайности в условиях стресса. Книга предназначена для студентов, занимающихся растительной биохимией, физиологией растений, молекулярной биологией, биотехнологией растений, экологией и других смежных областей, а также для ученых и исследователей, которые занимаются проблемой стресса в растительном мире и методами его уменьшения. Книга также будет полезна компаниям и учреждениям, занимающимся производством продуктов растительного происхождения и заинтересованным в повышении устойчивости к стрессу у растений в целях обеспечения продовольственной безопасности.
The growth in the global population and the industrial developments have led to a loss of land that has been cultivated. Meeting the needs of this growing population by providing food from limited resources is a big challenge for both the agricultural producers and plant scientists. Moreover, environmental factors add onto this problem. Plants that humans rely upon directly or indirectly show different methods of survival. The ability of plants to adapt to changing conditions is of keen interest for plant physiologists striving to attain food security. While many tolerance mechanisms have been developed, some plants fail to endure environmental extremes despite these efforts. New technological alternatives have become essential. Plant- Environment Interaction: Responses & Approaches for Mitigating Stress highlights trending conditions and how plants can endure them. It encompasses the modern knowledge and intensive explanations in plant physiology analysis, changes in climate patterns, agriculture, and forestry at times from a molecular level to aid deep understanding of how environmental stress affects plants, how they respond to those conditions, ways to dampen negative consequences and enhance productivity in stressed conditions. This relevant book has been curated by leading plant biochemists from around the globe, providing valuable knowledge to undergraduate and graduate students focused on plant biochemistry and nutritional studies, chemist steps in food chemistry and plant physiology, or plant cell and molecular biology. This update for researchers brings the most recent information and create a strategic path toward stress resistance, which can also offer helpful awareness to plant-based companies and organizations interested in initiatives to raise food security.

Описание книги от Parvaiz Ahmad
The increase in global population, urbanization and industrialization is resulting in the conversion of cultivated land into wasteland. Providing food from these limited resources to an ever-increasing population is one of the biggest challenges that present agriculturalists and plant scientists are facing. Environmental stresses make this situation even graver. Plants on which mankind is directly or indirectly dependent exhibit various mechanisms for their survival. Adaptability of the plants to changing environment is a matter of concern for plant biologists trying to reach the goal of food security. Despite the induction of several tolerance mechanisms, sensitive plants often fail to withstand these environmental extremes. Using new technological approaches has become essential and imperative. Plant-Environment Interaction: Responses and Approaches to Mitigate Stress throws light on the changing environment and the sustainability of plants under these conditions. It contains the most up-to-date research and comprehensive detailed discussions in plant physiology, climate change, agronomy and forestry, sometimes from a molecular point of view, to convey in-depth understanding of the effects of environmental stress in plants, their responses to the environment, how to mitigate the negative effects and improve yield under stress. This edited volume is written by expert plant biologists from around the world, providing invaluable knowledge to graduate and undergraduate students in plant biochemistry, food chemistry, plant physiology, molecular biology, plant biotechnology, and environmental sciences. This book updates scientists and researchers with the very latest information and sustainable methods used for stress tolerance, which will also be of considerable interest to plant based companies and institutions concerned with the campaign of food security.
