However, this edition does not include mineral deficiencies, which comprise too broad and involve a field to be incorporated with other stresses. This book attempts to analyze the possibilities of developing unified concepts of stress injury and resistance.Physiological ecology.PlantsEffect of stress onPlantsHardinessPlant ecologyPlantsEffect of stress on.PlantsHardiness.Plant ecology.581.2/4Levitt J(Jacob),1911-64217MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910822326103321Responses of plants to environmental stresses379480UNINA
