Plant stress biology : strategies and trends / Bhoopander Giri, Mahaveer Prasad Sharma, editors.

Plants growing in the natural environment battle with a variety of biotic (pathogens infection) and abiotic (salinity, drought, heat and cold stresses etc.) stresses. These physiological stresses drastically affect plant growth and productivity under field conditions. These challenges are likely to...
