Mapping Abiotic Stress-Tolerance Genes in Plants

<p><span style=color: rgb(232 230 227);>This book presents the latest research results on plant genes controlling tolerance to abiotic stresses including heat cold drought salt nitrogen metals irradiation and exogenous phytohormones. The authors report the expression profiles function/roles in physiological pathways and chromosomal locations of tolerance genes. The studies involve cytogenetics genomics proteomics and bioinformatics. The information is critical for food security in an environment experiencing global climate changes. Therefore this book provides a useful reference to students and professionals in plant sciences encompassing genetics physiology chemistry and breeding.</span></p>
