Changing Climate and Resource Use Efficiency in Plants
reviews the efficiencies for resource use by crop plants under
different climatic conditions. This book focuses on the challenges and
potential remediation methods for a variety of resource factors.
Chapters deal with the effects of different climatic conditions on
agriculture, radiation use efficiency under various climatic conditions,
the efficiency of water and its impact on harvest production under
restricted soil moisture conditions, nitrogen and phosphorus use
efficiency, nitrogen use efficiency in different environmental
conditions under the influence of climate change, and various aspects of
improving phosphorus use efficiency.
The book provides guidance
for researchers engaged in plant science studies, particularly
Plant/Crop Physiology, Agronomy, Plant Breeding and Molecular Breeding.
In addition, it provides valuable insights for policymakers,
administrators, plant-based companies and agribusiness companies.
- Explores climatic effects on agriculture through radiation, water, nitrogen, and phosphorus-use efficiency
- Guides
the planning and research of, and recommendations for, fertilizer
application for different crops under various climatic conditions
- Discusses efficiency improvements for plant and molecular breeders seeking to maximize resource use
