Crop production faces numerous challenges, due to changing environmental conditions and evolving needs for new plant-derived materials. These challenges come at a time when the plant sciences are witnessing remarkable progress in understanding fundamental processes of plant growth and development. Drought, heat, cold and salinity are among the major abiotic stresses that often cause a series of morphological, physiological, biochemical and molecular alterations which adversely affect plant growth, development and productivity, consequently posing a serious challenge for sustainable food production in large parts of the world, particularly in emerging countries. This emphasizes the urgency of finding better ways to translate new advances in plant science into concrete successes in agricultural production. To overcome the pessimistic influence of abiotic stresses and to maintain the food security in the face of these challenges, new, improved and tolerant crop varieties, contemporary | 出版日期 | Book 2014 | 关键词 | Climatic change; Omics; abiotic stress; ecophysiology; heavy metals | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4614-8830-9 | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4939-5565-7 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4614-8830-9 | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media New York 2014 |
