Nitric Oxide in Plant Resilience to Abiotic Stress

provides a comprehensive view of the roles of gasotransmitter NO, and harnessing its potential for the breeding of stress-resilient plants.

A volume in the Gasotransmitters and Molecules with Hormonal Activity series, the book explores the molecular mechanism of NO biosynthesis and signaling in response to various abiotic stressors.

The book covers all the multifactorial roles of nitric oxide starting from its biosynthesis, signaling, downstream targets, and mode of action including NO-induced post-translational modifications such as S-nitrosylation of the key stress-responsive proteins to govern the stress response.

By deciphering the molecular mechanism by which NO operates, this book reveals the impact on the physiological, biochemical, and molecular responses of plants in response to common abiotic stressors including drought, salinity, temperature extremes, and heavy metal toxicity, among others.

Researchers, academics and advanced level students in plant science will find this internationally contributed volume valuable.
