"'Calcium Transport Elements in Plants' provides an essential body of knowledge on calcium signaling in plants and its role in plant stress regulation. Calcium transport elements are involved in various structural, physiological, and biochemical processes or signal transduction pathways in response to various abiotic and biotic stimuli, functioning by mediating the transport of calcium ions (Ca2+) across cell membranes. Development of high-throughput sequencing technology has favored the identification and characterization of numerous gene families in plants in the recent years, including calcium transport elements. Introductory chapters include the role of calcium in plant development and stress signaling, the mechanism of Ca2+ homeostasis across plant membranes, and the evolution of calcium transport elements in plants. Subsequent chapters discuss the detailed functions of various transport elements involved in Ca2+ efflux, such as Ca2+ exchangers. In addition to transporter proteins, the book includes a few chapters related to CaM, CMLs, BCLs and CIPKs, and CAMTA involved in signal decoding and relay. Finally, this book discusses calcium transport in cellular organelles like chloroplast and mitochondria, the mechanism of Ca2+ uptake, translocation and homeostasis, interaction between Ca2+ and ROS signaling, calcium biofortification for nutritional enrichment, and methods for detection of Ca2+ in plant tissue"--Page 4 of cover.

"Plant Receptor-like Kinases: Role in Development and Stress presents the latest research in receptor-like kinases (RLKs), a class of development and defense-response proteins in plants. As one of the largest protein families, with roles ranging from growth and development to stress response, RLKs are involved in every aspect of the plant life cycle, including growth and development, reproduction, and immunity. Development of high throughput sequencing technology has improved the identification and characterization of numerous gene families in plants in the recent years, allowing researchers to identify and characterize numerous RLK sub-families in model plant species and agro-economically important crop plants like rice, wheat, sorghum, tomatoes, and more.This book provides foundational knowledge on the classification of RLKs, their mechanism of action and their roles in the plant life cycle, as well as the most up-to-date advances in the applications of RLKs. It is an essential read for researchers interested in plant signaling and plant genomics. Key Features: Presents detailed information on receptor like kinases (RLKs), including their mechanism of action and classification. Analyzes numerous sub-families of RLKs and their roles in plant development and stress management. Highlights the function of RLKs in plant innate immunity."--Provided by publisher.

This book discusses molecular approaches in plant as response to environmental factors, such as variations in temperature, water availability, salinity, and metal stress. The book also covers the impact of increasing global population, urbanization, and industrialization on these molecular behaviors. It covers the natural tolerance mechanism which plants adopt to cope with adverse environments, as well as the novel molecular strategies for engineering the plants in human interest. This book will be of interest to researchers working on the impact of the changing environment on plant ecology, issues of crop yield, and nutrient quantity and quality in agricultural crops. The book will be of interest to researchers as well as policy makers in the environmental and agricultural domains.
