Description matérielle : 1 ressource dématérialisée
Note(s) : Includes bibliographical references and index
"The mechanisms underlying endurance and adaptation to environmental stress factors
in plants have long been the focus of intense research. Plants overcome environmental
stresses by development of tolerance, resistance or avoidance mechanisms, adjusting
to a gradual change in its environment which allows them to maintain performance across
a range of adverse environmental conditions. Plant Acclimation to Environmental Stress
presents the latest ideas and trends on induced acclimation of plants to environmental
stresses under changing environment. Written by experts around the globe, this volume
adds new dimensions in the field of plant acclimation to abiotic stress factors. Comprehensive
and lavishly illustrated, Plant Acclimation to Environmental Stress is a state-of-the-art
guide suited for scholars and researchers working in the field of crop improvement,
genetic engineering and abiotic stress tolerance."--Page 4 of cover
