Urbanization, mining, industrial revolution, burning of fossil fuels/firewood and poor agricultural practices, in addition to improper dumping of waste products, are largely responsible for the undesirable change in the environment composition. Environmental pollution is mainly classified as air pollution, water pollution, land pollution, noise pollution, thermal pollution, light pollution, and plastic pollution. Nowadays, it has been realized that with the increasing environmental pollution, impurities may accumulate in plants, which are required for basic human uses such as for food, clothing, medicine, and so on. Environmental pollution has tremendous impacts on phenological events, structural patterns, physiological phenomena, biochemical status, and the cellular and molecular features of plants. Exposure to environmental pollution induces acute or chronic injury depending on the pollutant concentration, exposure duration, season and plant species. Moreover, the global rise of greenhouse gases such as carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, nitrous oxides, methane, chlorofluorocarbons and ozone in the atmosphere is among the major threats to the biodiversity. They have also shown visible impacts on life cycles and distribution of various plant species. Anthropogenic activities, including the fossil-fuel combustion in particular, are responsible for steady increases in the atmospheric greenhouse gases concentrations. This phenomenon accelerates the global heating. Studies have suggested that the changes in carbon dioxide concentrations, rainfall and temperature have greatly influenced the plant physiological and metabolic activities including the formation of biologically active ingredients. Taken together, plants interact with pollutants, and cause adverse ecological and economic outcomes. Therefore, plant response to pollutants requires more investigation in terms of damage detection, adaptation, tolerance, and the physiological and molecular responses.

Aggiungi al carrelloTaschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Role of Antioxidants in Mitigating Plant Stress explores the fundamental roles and mechanistic approaches of antioxidant stress tolerance strategies. With chapters addressing both enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidants, it provides a clear guide for understanding plant responses. Presenting current understanding of these components, the book features their role, molecular properties, and reaction mechanisms to various environmental conditions. This book provides an important reference for researchers and advanced level students seeking to improve plant health.Plants are regularly exposed to various kinds of abiotic and biotic stresses in their natural environmental conditions. These stresses have significant influence on agriculture worldwide and thus, lead to massive economic losses as well as food insecurity. Research has identified many of the effects of, and mitigation techniques for, various stresses that impact plant systems. Strategies for strengthening the antioxidant defense system can increase yields and protect crop plants from a variety of stresses.

Aggiungi al carrelloTaschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Roles of Osmolytes in Changing Environment is the only available comprehensive coverage of the recent advances in our understanding on how plants coordinate with different osmolytes, and their role in improving the tolerance of plants under stress conditions. Including insights of their effect against cold, heat, UV, submergence, wounding, extremes of temperature, drought, salinity, high metal concentrations, water logging, pollution, and nutrient deficiency stress, the book also explains the role of various osmolytes against phytopathogenic viruses, bacteria, fungi, algae, nematodes, and insects. Understanding the significance of different osmolytes for sustainable plant growth and production under diverse stress situations is increasingly important for both crop and non-crop plants. This volume presents the latest research and inspires further research toward osmolyte use in developing stress tolerance in plants. Roles of Osmolytes in Changing Environment is a valuable resource for scientists, researchers and advanced level students working in plant biology, plant physiology, plant stress physiology, plant biochemistry, botanical or crop sciences, environmental sciences, and ecological sciences.
