Plant Stress Tolerance: Molecular Mechanisms and Breeding Strategies

Plant Stress Tolerance: Molecular Mechanisms and Breeding Strategies, Volume One provides effective ways for organizing precision and sustainable agriculture. The methods include the use of advanced molecular techniques covering multiple omics, high-throughput technology, computational biology, epigenetic manipulation, and CRISPR genome editing. These methods can advance the development of high-yield, high-quality, and stress-resilient crops that meet the requirements for supporting global food and nutrition security.
The book proposes strategies for omics-assisted and speed breeding techniques, exploring molecular mechanisms of plant abiotic stress caused by temperature, drought, salinity, and various pollutants. These are uncovered by quantitative trait loci analysis and mapping, genomic selection, functional genomics, multiple omics, high-throughput sequencing, and high-throughput phenotyping, and are integrated into the various systems of crop improvement.
Plant Stress Tolerance: Molecular Mechanisms and Breeding Strategies, Volume One presents emerging and comprehensive knowledge and is an ideal reference for students, researchers, teachers, and professors. It inspires ideas for investigations in the fields of plant stress physiology, plant functional genomics, plant multiple omics, plant genetic engineering, systems biology, and crop breeding.
