Epigenetic Regulations in Plants: Mechanisms, Plant Development and Stress Responses, 1st Edition, examines epigenetic regulation as a key mechanism controlling plant gene expression. The text explores how these molecular processes influence overall plant physiology and confer tolerance against diverse abiotic and biotic stresses.
The volume introduces foundational epigenetic markers and reviews regulatory responses in plants, highlighting model systems such as Arabidopsis. It addresses how a deeper understanding of epigenetic machinery and chromatin accessibility can inform qualitative and quantitative crop improvement.
This work is intended for researchers and scientists across plant physiology, molecular biology, biotechnology, and agricultural science. It also serves as a reference for academic libraries and research institutions investigating plant growth, development, and stress adaptation.
