This new volume aims to be the single source that discusses in a comprehensive and elaborate way the photosynthetic and respiratory mechanisms in plants under hostile situations and the proper mitigating strategies to continue uninterrupted photosynthesis and respiration under such situations. Photosynthesis and respiration are the two main physiological processes for sugar biosynthesis and mobilization for driving all other vital functions. This volume delivers a wealth of sound information on these processes for scientists, researchers, and academicians.
With chapters from renowned scientists, researchers, and global leaders, this volume focuses on the effect of environmental stressors on photosynthetic pigments, photosystems, activities of photosynthetic enzymes and protein complexes, PSII photochemistry, carbon fixation pathways, photosynthetic efficiency, glycolytic and Krebs cycle pathways, and ATP production and electron transport chain of plants. The recovery of photosynthesis and respiration through application of phytohormones, signaling molecules, and other protective agents are also emphasized. Genetic engineering to enhance photosynthetic efficiency is highlighted as well.
Aryadeep Roychoudhury, PhD, is Assistant Professor at the Department of Biotechnology, St. Xavier's College (Autonomous), Kolkata, West Bengal, India. He is involved in research in the field of abiotic stress responses in plants with perspectives of physiology, molecular biology, and cell signaling under diverse stress conditions. Dr. Roychoudhury is currently handling several government-funded projects on abiotic stress responses in rice. He is also supervising several PhD students as principal investigator. To date, he has published over 200 articles in peerreviewed journals as well as chapters in books of international and national repute. He has edited many books from reputed publishers and has also guest edited several special issues of journals. He is a regular reviewer of articles for international journals, a life member of several scientific associations and societies, and the recipient of the Young Scientist Award 2019, conferred by the International Foundation for Environment and Ecology at the University of Allahabad, Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh, India. His name is included in the Stanford University's List of World's Top 2% Scientists.
