Exogenous Priming and Engineering of Plant Metabolic and Regulatory Genes: Stress Mitigation Strategies in Plants provides insights into metabolic adjustment, their regulation, and the regulatory networks involved in plants responding to stress situations. Understanding the character of the natural metabolites and metabolic / regulatory genes in crops can help in deciphering the metabolic signaling pathways and their function in environmental stress tolerance. As a result, the utilization of metabolite priming and genetic engineering to enhance environmental stress tolerance in crops is extremely promising. Presented in two Parts, Rewiring Stress Responses in Plants and Mitigating Stress by Engineering Metabolic / Regulatory Genes, this book contains comprehensive information combining mechanistic priming and engineering approaches from the conventional to the most recently developed. It addresses seed priming, tolerance mechanisms, pre-and post-treatment, as well as sensory response, and genetic manipulation. From basic concepts, to modern technologies, and prevailing policies, readers will find this book highly useful in enhancing their understanding of the area as well as helping in identifying appropriate and innovative approaches for future research.
