Hormones and Plant Response

This book will provide the recent advancements and overview to the plant scientists who are actively involved in phytohormones and their responses (nature, occurrence, and functions) in plant cells.

This book will focus on the role of phytohormones in biosynthesis, plant sexual reproduction, seed germination and fruit development and ripening.

This book will also provide role of different-different phytohormones on signaling pathways and also on photoperiodism/Gravitropism/Thigmotropism.

This volume will explore also role of phytohormones in gene expression and plant melatonin and serotonin.

This book will also cover how plant hormones react in case of stress/defence response (metals/metalloids/pathogen).

Last but not least, this volume will also include phytohormones in the framework of new regulatory molecules: Nitric oxide, hydrogen sulfide, melatonin? which is going to be unique for the reader of this book.
