Developing climate-smart crops is vital to securing food security around the world. This new book discusses the state-of-the-art technologies that can help to mitigate plant abiotic stresses in cultivated crops. It covers the current aspects of climate-resilience agriculture, including the crucial physiological, biochemical, and molecular aspects of cultivated crops under stress conditions, which play a pivotal role in developing climate-smart crops. The volume explores breeding, omics, genetic engineering, bioengineering of metabolic pathways, artificial intelligence, and more.

Key features:

  • Addresses the current and future challenges of climate changes on food security
  • Details the impact of different biotic, abiotic stresses, along with their interactions and effect on crop plants in climate-changing scenarios
  • Gives a comprehensive account of molecular mechanisms associated with different stresses in crop plants
  • Discusses advances in breeding and biotechnological techniques to tackle the different stresses in challenging climatic fluctuations
  • Highlights various emerging approaches and technologies currently being used in developing climate-smart crops
  • Provides success stories of crop improvement against the different stresses.

Ashutosh Singh, PhD, is an Assistant Professor at the Centre for Advanced Studies on Climate Change at Dr. Rajendra Prasad Central Agricultural University, Bihar, India. He has more than eight years of experience in different areas of plant biotechnology aspects, including plant stress biology, pollen-based selection, molecular marker studies, etc. Currently, he is working on transcriptomic profiling and the development of gene-based markers for pollen selection mediated reproductive stage heat stress tolerance in maize. He has published more than a dozen research papers in various journals of international repute, as well as book chapters and popular articles.

Saurabh Pandey, PhD, is Assistant Professor at the Department of Agriculture in Guru Nanak Dev University, Punjab, India. He has eight years of experience in plant biotechnology aspects, such as plant stress biology, plant virus interactions, abiotic stresses, biofortification, molecular marker studies, and metabolism related to the tomato and rice crop. Currently, he is working on the introduction and biotic stress management of unconventional crops like banana and apple. He has published research papers in journals of international repute as well as articles in magazines and periodicals. Dr. Pandey has authored many book chapters on molecular markers, genomics, plant breeding, and plant molecular virology, catering to the needs of modern agriculture research.
