Osmoprotectant-Mediated Abiotic Stress Tolerance in Plants Recent Advances and Future Perspectives

Osmoprotectant-Mediated Abiotic Stress Tolerance in Plants Recent Advances and Future Perspectives / edited by Mohammad Anwar Hossain, Vinay Kumar, David J. Burritt, Masayuki Fujita, Pirjo S. A. Mäkelä.

In nature, plants are constantly challenged by various abiotic and biotic stresses that can restrict their growth, development and yields. In the course of their evolution, plants have evolved a variety of sophisticated and efficient mechanisms to sense, respond to, and adapt to changes in the surro...
