Harsh environment and plant resilience : molecular and functional aspects

Harsh environment and plant resilience : molecular and functional aspects / Azamal Husen, editor.

In the recent past, threats from climate change and unforeseeable environmental extremes to plant growth and productivity have consistently increased. The climate change-driven effects, especially from unpredictable environmental fluctuations, can result in an increased prevalence of abiotic and bio...
