Soil Salinity Stress and Consequences in Physiological Processes of Plants – hinnat ja saatavuus

This book examines how high levels of soil salinity associated with global climate change have become a major agricultural concern, severely affecting crop growth, development, and yield. High salinity stress leads to a series of morphological and physiological changes in plants and adversely affects their growth, development, and productivity. High salinity stress is a serious global threat to agriculture and the environment, which has been exacerbated in the current century by global warming and industrialization. The author discusses strategies to overcome the effects of soil salinity stress and increase crop productivity through various agronomic approaches, plant breeding techniques, and other developing methods using physiological traits as selection criteria. The in-depth descriptions of major physiological issues in plants under soil salinity stress presented in this book will help plant breeders develop crops with desirable physiological traits for survival in the face of increasing soil salinity. This book is an impactful addition to the library of faculty members, researchers, agricultural policy planners, postgraduate students, and students studying plant physiology and other subjects of crop husbandry. Key Features: This book addresses the challenges plant life faces in high soil salinity environments, the impact on major physiological processes, and strategies to promote crop productivity under such conditions. This book examines in depth the effects of salinity stress on plant resource-use efficiency at different crop growth stages. Provides information applicable to current and future research.
