Redaktion: Azeem, Uzma; Hakeem, Khalid Rehman

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Highlights the beneficial roles of jasmonates in plants, discussing their use in nano- to micromolecular concentrations to mitigate the toxic effects of biotic and abiotic stresses and to improve crop yield. Covers the genetic basis of jasmonates' action, their effects on antioxidant defense systems, crosstalk with other plant hormones, etc.
