Numerous plant types of tropical or subtropical origin are injured or killed by non-freezing low temperature, and display a range of symptoms of chilling injury such as chlorosis, necrosis, or growth retardation. In contrast, chilling tolerant species thrive well at such temperatures. To thrive under cold stress conditions, plants have evolved complex mechanisms to identify peripheral signals that allow them to counter varying environmental conditions. These mechanisms include stress perception, signal transduction, transcriptional activation of stress-responsive target genes, and synthesis of stress-related proteins and other molecules, which help plants to strive through adverse environmental conditions. Conventional breeding methods have met with limited success in improving the cold tolerance of important crop plants through inter-specific or inter-generic hybridization. A better understanding of physiological, biochemical and molecular responses and tolerance mechanisms, and discovery of novel stress-responsive pathways and genes may contribute to efficient engineering strategies that enhance cold stress tolerance. It is therefore imperative to accelerate the efforts to unravel the biochemical, physiological and molecular mechanisms underlying cold stress tolerance in plants. Through this new book, we intend to integrate the contributions from plant scientists targeting cold stress tolerance mechanisms using physiological, biochemical, molecular, structural and systems biology approaches. It is hoped that this collection will serve as a reference source for those who are interested in or are actively engaged in cold stress research. 606 $aPlant physiology 606 $aPlant biotechnology 606 $aAgriculture 606 $aCytology 606 $aStress (Physiology) 606 $aPlant Physiology 606 $aPlant Biotechnology 606 $aAgriculture 606 $aCellular Stress 615 0$aPlant physiology. 615 0$aPlant biotechnology. 615 0$aAgriculture. 615 0$aCytology. 615 0$aStress (Physiology). 615 14$aPlant Physiology. 615 24$aPlant Biotechnology. 615 24$aAgriculture. 615 24$aCellular Stress. 676 $a632.11 702 $aWani$b Shabir Hussain$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aHerath$b Venura$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298393803321 996 $aCold Tolerance in Plants$92496862 997 $aUNINA
