内容説明

This volume addresses issues and concerns related to plant and crop stress, detailing interrelated topics. Written by over 50 renowned scientists, specialists, and researchers in the field from 12 countries, the "Handbook of Plant and Crop Stress": discusses soil salinity and sodicity problems and their effects on crop growth; covers plants and crops with different degrees of salt tolerance as well as their response to salt, drought, and other stresses; introduces plants and crops suitable for cultivation under stressful conditions; presents another source of irrigation water for arid and semiarid regions; and explores the beneficial effects of stress on plants and crops. This reference is intended for plant, crop, soil, and environmental scientists; agriculturists; horticulturalists; agronomists; plant physiologists; botanists; biochemists; foresters; and upper-level undergraduate, graduate, and continuing-education students in these disciplines.
