Due to an increasing world population, droughts could lead to serious food shortages by 2050. The situation may worsen due to predicated climatic changes that may increase the frequency, duration and severity of droughts. Hence, there is an urgent need to improve our understanding of the complex mechanisms associated with drought tolerance and to develop modern crop varieties that are more resilient to drought. Identification of the genes responsible for drought tolerance in plants will contribute to our understanding of the molecular mechanisms that could enable crop plants to respond to drought. The discovery of novel drought related genes, the analysis of their expression patterns in response to drought, and determination of the functions these genes play in drought adaptation will provide a base to develop effective strategies to enhance the drought tolerance of crop plants. Plant breeding efforts to increase crop yields in dry environments have been slow to date mainly due to our poor understanding of the molecular and genetic mechanisms involved in how plants respond to drought. In addition, when it comes to combining favourable alleles, there are practical obstacles to developing superior high yielding genotypes fit for drought prone environments. Drought Tolerance in Plants, Vol 2: Molecular and Genetic Perspectives combines novel topical findings, regarding the major molecular and genetic events associated with drought tolerance, with contemporary crop improvement approaches. This volume is unique as it makes available for its readers not only extensive reports of existing facts and data, but also practical knowledge and overviews of state-of-the-art technologies, across the biological fields, from plant breeding using classical and molecular genetic information, to the modern omic technologies, that are now being used in drought tolerance research to breed drought-related traits into modern crop varieties. This book is useful for teachers and researchers in the fields of plant breeding, molecular biology and biotechnology. 000771064 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed September 8, 2016). 000771064 650_0 $$aPlants$$xDrought tolerance. 000771064 650_0 $$aPlants$$xEffect of drought on. 000771064 7001_ $$aHossain, Mohammad Anwar,$$eeditor. 000771064 7001_ $$aWani, Shabir Hussain,$$eeditor. 000771064 7001_ $$aBhattachajee, Soumen,$$eeditor. 000771064 7001_ $$aBurritt, David J.$$eeditor. 000771064 7001_ $$aTran, Lam-Son Phan,$$eeditor. 000771064 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9783319324210$$z3319324217$$w(OCoLC)944473635 000771064 85280 $$bebk$$hSpringerLink 000771064 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-32423-4$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000771064 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:771064$$pGLOBAL_SET 000771064 980__ $$aEBOOK 000771064 980__ $$aBIB 000771064 982__ $$aEbook 000771064 983__ $$aOnline 000771064 994__ $$a92$$bISE
