This book focuses on research advances regarding plant responses to abiotic stresses, from the physiological level to the molecular level. It highlights new insights gained from the integration of omics datasets and identifies remaining gaps in our knowledge, outlining additional focus areas for future crop improvement research.
Plants have evolved a wide range of mechanisms for coping with various abiotic stresses. In many crop plants, the molecular mechanisms involved in a single type of stress tolerance have since been identified; however, in order to arrive at a holistic understanding of major and common events concerning abiotic stresses, the signaling pathways involved must also be elucidated. To date several molecules, like transcription factors and kinases, have been identified as promising candidates that are involved in crosstalk between stress signalling pathways. However, there is a need to better understand the tolerance mechanisms for different abiotic stresses by thoroughly grasping the signalling and sensing mechanisms involved.
Accordingly, this book covers a range of topics, including the impacts of different abiotic stresses on plants, the molecular mechanisms leading to tolerance for different abiotic stresses, signaling cascades revealing cross-talk among various abiotic stresses, and elucidation of major candidate molecules that may provide abiotic stress tolerance in plants.

Mohammad Yousuf Zargar, Ph.D, is currently Director Research at Sher-e-Kashmir University of Agricultural Sciences & Technology of Kashmir (SKUAST-Kashmir) in India. He was previously Dean, Faculty of Agriculture; Dean, Faculty of Forestry; Associate Director Research and Associate Dean, Faculty of Agriculture, SKUAST-Kashmir. Prior to that he has worked as Professor-cum-Chief Scientists (Microbiology) at SKUAST-Kashmir. Dr. Zargar has published more than 160 research papers in the scientific journals of national and international repute. He has guided 8 students for the doctoral programme and 6 for the master's [...] has received many honours and awards for his contribution to research work. His major contribution has been on fermentation technology for mass multiplication of biofertilizers and biocontrol agents. Dr. Zargar has received appreciations for his product "Shalimar Microbes", a consortium of microbes that decompose waste in a short period. Dr. Zargar has been actively pursuing the research on cold tolerant microbes for soild / liquid waste decomposition and nutrient mobilisation. He has also served as associate editor of several scientific journals. Presently, Dr. Zargar is guiding research programmes of the University in agriculture, animal husbandry and other allied sections.
