ABSTRACT

Response of Field Crops to Abiotic Stress: Current Status and Future Prospects is a collection of useful scientific resources for students, researchers, and academicians on diverse aspects of abiotic stress responses in field crops. The book provides its readers with a vivid understanding of abiotic stress responses in field crops by covering diverse aspects. It offers exhaustive explanations of the impact and responses of field crops to abiotic stresses.

This book offers comprehensive coverage of:

  • Climate change impact on field crops
  • Arsenic and aluminium stress responses in field crops
  • Drought, high temperature, and flooding stress responses in field crops
  • Salinity and osmotic stress responses in field crops
  • Heavy metal stress responses in field crops
  • UV stress responses
  • Elemental biofortification
  • Reactive oxygen species (ROS) metabolism
  • Nutraceutical and human health
  • Computational modelling approaches for abiotic stresses in plants
