Plant Responses to Drought and Salinity stress: Developments in a Post-Genomic Era

Advances in Botanical Research publishes in-depth and up-to-date reviews on a wide range of topics in plant sciences. Currently in its 57th volume, the series features a wide range of reviews by recognized experts on all aspects of plant genetics, biochemistry, cell biology, molecular biology, physiology and ecology. This thematic volume describes developments in understanding of plant responses to drought and salinity in post-genomic and are evaluated by world wide- known experts.

Multidisciplinary reviews written from a broad range of scientific perspectivesFor over 40 years, series has enjoyed a reputation for excellenceContributors internationally recognized authorities in their respective fields
