Stress induced by changing environmental conditions disrupts or alter various physiological and metabolic processes in organisms, however, plants have evolved various defence strategies to cope with external perturbations. The book discusses speciation changes in response to extreme ecological conditions such as cold, heat, aridity, salinity, altitude, incidental UV radiation and high light intensity, which are particularly relevant in the current scenario of global warming. It also explores the effects of human activities and emission of phytotoxic gases. Further, it describes the overall adaptation strategies and the multifaceted mechanisms involved (integrated complex mechanism), ranging from morphological to molecular alterations, focusing on plants? capabilities to create an inner environment to survive the altered or extreme conditions. This book is a valuable tool for graduate and research students, as well as for anyone working on or interested in adaptation strategies in plants. 606 $aBotany 606 $aBotany 606 $aEnvironmental management 606 $aOxidative stress 606 $aPlant ecology 606 $aClimatic changes 606 $aPlant Sciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L24000 606 $aEnvironmental Management$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U17009 606 $aOxidative Stress$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L16070 606 $aPlant Ecology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19112 606 $aClimate Change$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U12007 615 0$aBotany. 615 0$aBotany. 615 0$aEnvironmental management. 615 0$aOxidative stress. 615 0$aPlant ecology. 615 0$aClimatic changes. 615 14$aPlant Sciences. 615 24$aEnvironmental Management. 615 24$aOxidative Stress. 615 24$aPlant Ecology. 615 24$aClimate Change. 676 $a580 702 $aShukla$b Vertika$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aKumar$b Sanjeev$f1986-$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aKumar$b Narendra$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910253943403321 996 $aPlant Adaptation Strategies in Changing Environment$92065516 997 $aUNINA
