Climate change threatens the sustainable agriculture with its rapid and unpredictable effects, making it difficult for agriculturists and farmers to respond to the challenges cropping up from environmental stresses. In light of population growth and climate changes, investment in agriculture is the only way to avert wide scale food shortages. This challenge comes at a time when plant sciences are witnessing remarkable progress in understanding the fundamental processes of plant growth and development. Plant researchers have identified genes controlling different aspects of plant growth and development, but many challenges still exist in creating an apt infrastructure, access to bioinformatics, and good crop results. Improvement of Crops in the Era of Climatic Changes, Volume 2 focuses on many existing opportunities that can be applied methodically through conventional breeding, without touching upon the latest discoveries such as the power of genomics to applied breeding in plant biology.Written by a diverse faction of internationally famed scholars, this volume adds new horizons in the field of crop improvement, genetic engineering and abiotic stress tolerance. Comprehensive and lavishly illustrated, Improvement of Crops in the Era of Climatic Changes, Volume 2 is a state-of-the-art guide to recent developments vis-à-vis various aspects of plant responses in molecular and biochemical ways to create strong yields and overall crop improvement. 606 $aPlant science 606 $aBotany 606 $aPlant physiology 606 $aPlant breeding 606 $aPlant biochemistry 606 $aCell biology 606 $aPhysical geography 606 $aPlant Sciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L24000 606 $aPlant Physiology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L33020 606 $aPlant Breeding/Biotechnology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L24060 606 $aPlant Biochemistry$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L14021 606 $aCell Biology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L16008 606 $aEarth System Sciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G35000 615 0$aPlant science. 615 0$aBotany. 615 0$aPlant physiology. 615 0$aPlant breeding. 615 0$aPlant biochemistry. 615 0$aCell biology. 615 0$aPhysical geography. 615 14$aPlant Sciences. 615 24$aPlant Physiology. 615 24$aPlant Breeding/Biotechnology. 615 24$aPlant Biochemistry. 615 24$aCell Biology. 615 24$aEarth System Sciences. 676 $a631.523 702 $aAhmad$b Parvaiz$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aWani$b Mohd Rafiq$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aAzooz$b Mohamed Mahgoub$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aPhan Tran$b Lam-Son$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298326803321 996 $aImprovement of Crops in the Era of Climatic Changes$92503147 997 $aUNINA
