Plant Perspectives to Global Climate Changes: Developing Climate-Resilient Plants reviews and integrates currently available information on the impact of the environment on functional and adaptive features of plants from the molecular, biochemical and physiological perspectives to the whole plant level. The book also provides a direction towards implementation of programs and practices that will enable sustainable production of crops resilient to climatic alterations. This book will be beneficial to academics and researchers working on stress physiology, stress proteins, genomics, proteomics, genetic engineering, and other fields of plant physiology.

Advancing ecophysiological understanding and approaches to enhance plant responses to new environmental conditions is critical to developing meaningful high-throughput phenotyping tools and maintaining humankind?s supply of goods and services as global climate change intensifies.

Prof. (Dr.) Aryadeep Roychoudhury is currently serving as Professor in the Discipline of Life Sciences, School of Sciences, Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU), New Delhi. Before joining IGNOU, he worked as Assistant Professor at the Post Graduate Department of Biotechnology, St. Xavier’s College (Autonomous), Kolkata. Prof. Roychoudhury did B.Sc. (Honours) in Botany from Presidency College, Kolkata, and M.Sc. in Biophysics and Molecular Biology from University of Calcutta. He obtained his Ph.D. degree in Science from Bose Institute, Kolkata under Jadavpur University in the area of Plant Molecular Biology and Biotechnology. He has been associated with the molecular regulation of late embryogenesis abundant genes and the basic leucine zipper group of transcription factors, governing salt tolerance in rice. His post doctoral research was based on translational research on transgenic rice with enhanced salt and drought tolerance. His current research interests include physiological and molecular responses and cell signaling of plants during diverse abiotic stresses including fluoride, heavy metals, salinity and
