      abstract = {In the context of climate change, pollution and food  safety, the current challenge is to enhance legumes  production to sustain the growing population needs by 2050.  This is a daunting task because abiotic and biotic stresses  are threatening the growth, survival and productivity of  legumes. For instance, the productivity of legumes is  documented to be reduced by 14-88% by abiotic stresses. The  co-occurrence of abiotic and biotic stresses under field  conditions leads to interactive stress types, thus yielding  positive or negative outcomes. Legumes react using  antioxidant defense, osmoregulatory adjustments, hormonal  regulations and molecular mechanisms to tolerate stress.  Hence, improving legume productivity requires knowledge on  the sensitivity, mechanisms and approaches of stress  tolerance in legumes, in order to design new crops and  alternative management systems. This book presents advances  on bioactive compounds, applications, effect of various  stresses and biotechnology-based stress tolerance  mechanisms of legumes. This is our second volume on Legume  Agriculture and Biotechnology, published in the series  Sustainable Agriculture Reviews.},
