Inhaltsangabe

Plant Stress Mitigators: Types, Techniques and Functions presents a detailed contextual discussion of various stressors on plant health and yield, with accompanying insights into options for limiting impacts using chemical elicitors, bio-stimulants, breeding techniques and agronomical techniques such as seed priming, cold plasma treatment, and nanotechnology, amongst others. The book explores the various action mechanisms for enhancing plant growth and stress tolerance capacity, including nutrient solubilizing and mobilizing, biocontrol activity against plant pathogens, phytohormone production, soil conditioners, and many more unrevealed mechanisms.

This book combines research, methods, opinion, perspectives and reviews, dissecting the stress alleviation action of different plant stress mitigators on crops grown under optimal and sub-optimal growing conditions (abiotic and biotic stresses).

Über die Autorinnen und Autoren

Mansour Ghorbanpour obtained his MSc and PhD degrees in Crop Ecology from Tehran University (Karaj, Iran) and has been a visiting scholar in the Nutrient Uptake and Toxicity Stress (NUTS) group at the University of Western Australia (Perth, Australia). He specializes in the production and domestication of medicinal and aromatic plants. His research interests include medicinal plants and their bioactive ingredients in stressful environments; the discovery and development of new therapeutic plants and products; phyto-nanotechnology; the bioavailability of emerging contaminants in plant–soil systems; agricultural practices and techniques for increasing plant primary and secondary metabolites; and the diversity of natural products and bioactive compounds of aromatic medicinal plants, among others. A prolific author, Dr. Ghorbanpour was listed among the top 2% of scientists in the world for three consecutive years (2019–2021) by Stanford University.

Dr. Muhammad Adnan Shahid is a faculty member at the Horticultural Sciences Department, University of Florida/IFAS, North Florida Research and Education Center. Dr. Shahid has also worked at Cornell University and University of Florida, as post-doc and research scientist, respectively. His areas of expertise include plant physiology and biochemistry, nutrient and water management, plant growth regulators, abiotic stresses, and hydroponic/aeroponic systems. Dr. Shahid has published research articles in peer reviewed journals and seven book chapters. He is also serving a reviewer of various scientific journals and serves as co-chair for Northeast Greenhouse of Conference, USA. It is the association of scientist and growers in New England region in USA.

Technical innovations in agriculture are prime necessity to combat worldwide climate change, challenges of population boost and restricted food availability. Plant stress mitigators including beneficial microbes and other organic compounds (green chemicals, botanical extracts, microbial derived products etc.) help plants to cope different types of biotic and abiotic stresses. The inclusion of such eco-friendly approaches in agricultural practices will help to achieve the goal for sustainable agriculture production.

Plant Stress Mitigators explores the various action mechanisms for enhancing plant growth and stress tolerance capacity including nutrient solubilizing and mobilizing, bicontrol activity against plant pathogens, phytohormone production, soil conditioners and many more unrevealed mechanisms. This book combines research, methods, opinion, perspectives, and reviews dissecting the stress alleviation action of different plant stress mitigators on crops grown under optimal and sub-optimal growing conditions (abiotic and biotic stresses).
