Climate-Resilient Agriculture: A Molecular Perspective

Developing climate-smart crops is vital to securing food security around the world. This new book discusses the state-of-the-art technologies that can help to mitigate plant abiotic stresses in cultivated crops. It covers the current aspects of climate-resilience agriculture, including the crucial physiological, biochemical, and molecular aspects of cultivated crops under stress conditions, which play a pivotal role in developing climate-smart crops. The volume explores breeding, omics, genetic engineering, bioengineering of metabolic pathways, artificial intelligence, and more. Key features: Addresses the current and future challenges of climate changes on food security Details the impact of different biotic, abiotic stresses, along with their interactions and effect on crop plants in climate-changing scenarios Gives a comprehensive account of molecular mechanisms associated with different stresses in crop plants Discusses advances in breeding and biotechnological techniques to tackle the different stresses in challenging climatic fluctuations Highlights various emerging approaches and technologies currently being used in developing climate-smart crops Provides success stories of crop improvement against the different stresses.
