Transcription Factors for Abiotic Stress Tolerance in PlantsAuthor(s): Shabir Hussain Wani\nFormat: Paperback\nPublisher: Elsevier Science Publishing Co Inc, United States\nImprint: Academic Press Inc\nISBN-13: 9780128193341, 978-0128193341\nSynopsis\nTranscription Factors for Abiotic Stress Tolerance in Plants highlights advances in the understanding of the regulatory network that impacts plant health and production, providing important insights for improving plant resistance. Plant production worldwide is suffering serious losses due to widespread abiotic stresses increasing as a result of global climate change. Frequently more than one abiotic stress can occur at once, for example extreme temperature and osmotic stress, which increases the complexity of these environmental stresses. Modern genetic engineering technologies are one of the promising tools for development of plants with efficient yields and resilience to abiotic stresses. Hence deciphering the molecular mechanisms and.
