Full Description
This book presents a detailed overview and critical evaluation of the state of the art in genetics, genomics and bioinformatics research in Brassica species to alleviate the effects of climate extremes on growth and productivity. Each chapter has been written by plant stress biology experts and highlights the contribution of various genetic/pathway and the regulation in abiotic stress, recent advances in molecular breeding, biotechnology and genomics approach, making it easier to identify and isolate several key genes in abiotic stress such as drought, flooding, extreme temperature, salinity, and toxicity of heavy metals.Many abiotic factors such as drought, salinity, extreme temperatures (very low and very high), low or high light intensity, nutrient deficiencies or toxic levels have a significant impact on crop productivity. Over the past few decades, we have witnessed tremendous efforts to understand the molecular, biochemical and physiological underlies of stress tolerance, but just as important is whether the research community can effectively apply existing techniques. This volume is not intended to cover every small technique available to understand plant stress tolerance, but it covers the most important widely used techniques, including the most recent. This book is a valuable resource for scientists, researchers, students, planners and industrialists working in the fields of biotechnology, plant agriculture, agronomy, horticulture, plant physiology, molecular biology, plant science and environmental science.
