Elsevier Plant Nutrient Strategies for Abiotic Stress Resilience

Plant Nutrient Strategies for Abiotic Stress Resilience presents a cutting-edge exploration of how nutrient strategies can enhance crop resilience in the face of increasing abiotic stresses such as drought, salinity, heat, cold, and nutrient-poor soils. Through 18 comprehensive chapters authored by leading experts in plant nutrition and stress physiology, the book bridges fundamental scientific knowledge with practical agronomic applications. Maintaining crop productivity in the face of abiotic stressors such as drought, salinity, nutrient depletion, and climate variability continues to challenge crop producers around the world. At the same time, they need to ensure environmentally sustainable nutrient management in diverse and often fragile ecosystems. Many lack access to integrated, up-to-date knowledge that combines soil-plant nutrient dynamics with real-world strategies to combat stress in crops. From nutrient uptake mechanisms under stress conditions to advanced innovations such as nano-fertilizers and genetic approaches for nutrient efficiency, Plant Nutrient Strategies for Abiotic Stress Resilience offers an essential, science-based toolkit for researchers, students, consultants, and policymakers aiming to secure sustainable crop production in a changing climate. Offers clear, science-backed insights into how essential nutrients function under stress Presents practical applications and recommendations for optimizing fertilizer regimes in variable environments Highlights emerging tools including nano-fertilizers, biofortification, and precision agriculture tailored to stress conditions Bridges the gap between academic knowledge and field-level implementation for sustainable crop resilience
