In the present era, plants are facing a lot of challenges during their lifecycle, including growth declines due to abiotic stress. The main abiotic stresses threatening plants are water scarcity, salinity, extreme temperatures, heavy metals and pesticides. These stresses directly or indirectly cause toxicity to plants, causing hindrance to their growth and development, and ultimately reduce plant productivity.
- Provides the latest research on all major Plant Growth Regulators (PGRs)
- Focuses on the mechanistic approaches of the physiological and molecular actions of PGRs
- Highlights crosstalk between PGRs and phytohormones
