In the wake of shrinking arable land and widespread changes in climate, global agriculture
is threatened. Global losses in agricultural production due to abiotic stresses are estimated …

Plants respond to multiple simultaneous stresses in a complex manner that is different to that
for individual stresses, and not merely additive. This is particularly true for concurrent biotic …

In nature, plants are exposed to an ever-changing environment with increasing frequencies
of multiple abiotic stresses. These abiotic stresses act either in combination or sequentially …

Environmental insults such as extremes of temperature, extremes of water status, and
deteriorating soil conditions pose major threats to agriculture and food security. Employing …

In natural or agricultural environments, plants are constantly exposed to a wide range of
biotic and abiotic stresses. Given the forecasted global climate changes, plants will cope …

This book presents a whole-plant perspective on plant integrated responses to multiple
stresses, including an analysis of how plants have evolved growth forms and phenological …

In field conditions, plants are often simultaneously exposed to multiple biotic and abiotic
stresses resulting in substantial yield loss. Plants have evolved various physiological and …

Plant responses to different stresses are highly complex and involve changes at the
transcriptome, cellular, and physiological levels. Recent evidence shows that plants respond …

Environmental stresses represent the most limiting factors for agricultural productivity. Apart
from biotic stress caused by plant pathogens, there are a number of abiotic stresses such as …

Understanding abiotic plant stress and its impact on plant responses and plant adaptation is
a very contemporary issue in plant science, recently driven by the mounting concerns about …
