The chief objective of the book hence is to deliver state of the art information for comprehending the nature of abiotic stress in plants. This book is broadly dived into sections on the stresses, their mechanisms and tolerance, genetics and adaptation, and focuses on the mechanic aspects in addition to touching some adaptation features. In depth understanding of the stresses and their effects on plants is of paramount importance to evolve effective strategies to counter them. ![]() The fast pace at which developments and novel findings that are recently taking place in the cutting edge areas of molecular biology and basic genetics, have reinforced and augmented the efficiency of science outputs in dealing with plant abiotic stresses. ![]() The reasons for this are water shortages, depleting soil fertility and mainly various abiotic stresses. ![]() On the other hand, agricultural productivity is not increasing at a required rate to keep up with the food demand. World population is growing at an alarming rate and is anticipated to reach about six billion by the end of year 2050.
