Brassinosteroidsin Plant Developmental Biology and Stress Toleranceprovides insights into understanding the mechanisms ofBrassinosteroid-regulated plant developmental biology and stress tolerance covering various biochemical, physiological,geneticand molecular studies.
As unprecedented climate change poses a serious threat to global food security by intensifying environmental stresses, studies reveal thatBrassinosteroids(BRs) could not only protect plants from stresses to ensure food security, but could also reduce toxic compounds in edible plant parts for assuring food safety. Therefore, utilization of BRs in modern agriculture will be of great significance in the context of global climate change.
This book also highlights key information for developing eco-friendly growth regulators and understanding the importance ofbrassinosteroidsin safe food production.
