Abiotic Stress and Biotechnology

Abiotic stress such as drought, salinity, cold and soil acidity cause a great loss to agricultural crops. Other stresses like zinc deficiency, soil nutrient deficiency and elevated CO2 also are responsible for crop loss. The effects of these on molecular mechanisms have to be stressed. In the present book effect of Abiotic stress and molecular mechanisms involved in Abiotic Stress tolerance is given in chapter 1. Genetic Engineering of plants for enhancing Abiotic stress is given in chapter...
