Various stresses,such as drought, salinity, waterlogging, high and low temperatures, canhave a major impact on plant growth and survival - with important economic consequences in crop plants. This book examines some of themore important stresses, shows how they affect the plant and thenreviews how new varieties or new species can be selected which are lessvulnerable to stress.
