Abiotic Stress Management in Fruit Crops is a comprehensive academic resource that focuses on the impact of non-living environmental factors on fruit crop growth, development, and productivity. The book systematically covers major types of abiotic stresses such as temperature extremes, radiation, wind, salinity, moisture imbalance, nutrient deficiency, and ion toxicity. It also explains how these stresses interact and collectively influence plant physiology and yield.
A key strength of this book is its clear explanation of plant adaptive mechanisms that help fruit crops survive under adverse conditions. It further highlights modern stress management and mitigation strategies that can be applied in orchard management and horticultural practices to improve productivity and sustainability.
Designed for students, researchers, and agricultural professionals, this book bridges theoretical concepts with practical applications. It serves as a valuable guide for understanding plant stress physiology and developing effective solutions for improving fruit crop performance under changing environmental conditions.
