Publisher's Synopsis
It is widely anticipated that the global population will exceed 9.7 billion by the year 2050, necessitating a corresponding increase in food production. Moreover, the changing climate has resulted in the emergence of abiotic stresses, such as drought and salinity, which pose a serious threat to crop productivity. Recently, this approach has gained considerable traction and is viewed as a promising solution for the future.
The current book sheds light on the pivotal role of various types of microorganisms in mitigating abiotic stress in crop plants.
