| Summary |
The climate change era has created need to understand the abiotic stress in a holistic way. Therefore, the deep understanding of multiple abiotic stress mechanism is necessary to develop climate smart crop. The outline of this book has been framed covering the most recent technology and strategies for stress tolerance |
