Continuous discoveries in plant and crop physiology have resulted in an abundance of new information since the publication of the third edition of the Handbook of Plant and Crop Physiology. Following its predecessors the fourth edition of this well-regarded handbook offers a unique comprehensive and complete collection of topics in the field of plant and crop physiology. Divided into eleven sections for easy access of information this edition contains more than 90 percent new material substantial revisions and two new sections. The handbook covers the physiology of plant and crop growth and development cellular and molecular aspects plant genetics and production processes. The book presents findings on plant and crop growth in response to climatic changes and considers the potential for plants and crops adaptation exploring the biotechnological aspects of plant and crop improvement. This content is used to plan implement and evaluate strategies for increasing plant growth and crop yield. Readers benefit from numerous tables figures case studies and illustrations as well as thousands of index words all of which increase the accessibility of the information contained in this important handbook. New to the Edition: Contains 37 new chapters and 13 extensively revised and expanded chapters from the third edition of this book. Includes new or modified sections on soil-plant-water-nutrients-microorganisms physiological relations; and on plant growth regulators both promoters and inhibitors. Additional new and modified chapters cover the physiological responses of lower plants and vascular plants and crops to metal-based nanoparticles and agrichemicals; and the growth responses of plants and crops to climate change and environmental stresses. With contributions from 95 scientists from 20 countries this book provides a comprehensive resource for research and for university courses covering plant and crop physiological responses under normal and stressful conditions ranging from cellular aspects to whole plants.
