Sustainable Crop Productivity and Quality under Climate Change: Responses of Crop Plants to Climate Change

Sustainable Crop Productivity and Quality under Climate Change: Responses of Crop Plants to Climate Change explores the physiological, biochemical and molecular bases of the responses of major crop plants to a range of climate change scenarios, including the development of climate resilience crop varieties that lead to enhanced crop productivity and quality under stressful conditions. The book presents a much-needed mechanistic understanding on the interactions between multiple stress responses of plants needed to identify and take advantage of acclimation traits in major crop species as a prerequisite for securing robust yields and good quality. This is an excellent reference book for plant scientists, advanced level students and frontline researchers working on plant/crop ecophysiology/stress physiology, as well as those sustaining crop production under climate change.
