Each chapter has been written by experts in plant-stress biology and highlights the involvement of a variety of genes/pathways and their regulation in abiotic stress, recent advances in molecular breeding (identification of tightly liked markers, QTLs/genes), transgenesis (introduction of exogenous genes or changing the expression of endogenous stress- responsive genes) and genomics approaches that have made it easier to identify and isolate several key genes involved in abiotic stress such as drought, water lodging/flooding, extreme temperatures, salinity and heavy-metal toxicity..Food and nutritional security has emerged as a major global challenge due to expanding populations, and cultivated areas becoming less productive as a result of extreme climatic changes adversely affecting the quantity and quality of plants. Hence, there is an urgent need to develop crop varieties resilient to abiotic stress to ensure food security and combat increased input costs, low y | | 出版日期 | Book 2015 | | 关键词 | -omics; Abiotic stress; Agriculture; Biotechnology; Climate change; Genetic engineering; Molecular Biology | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-81-322-2662-8 | | isbn_softcover | 978-81-322-3809-6 | | isbn_ebook | 978-81-322-2662-8 | | copyright | Springer India 2015 |
