Drought Stress Tolerance in Plants, Vol 1 Physiology and Biochemistry /

Abiotic stress adversely affects crop production worldwide, decreasing average yields for most of the crops to 50%. Among various abiotic stresses affecting agricultural production, drought stress is considered to be the main source of yield reduction around the globe. Due to an increasing world pop...
