Abiotic Stress Responses in Plants Metabolism, Productivity and Sustainability / edited by Parvaiz Ahmad, M.N.V. Prasad.

Abiotic stress cause changes in soil-plant-atmosphere continuum and is responsible for reduced yield in several major crops.  Therefore, the subject of abiotic stress response in plants - metabolism, productivity and sustainability - is gaining considerable significance in the contemporary world. Ab...
