Plant Phosphorus Nutrition e-bog

This book is an up-to-date reference on phosphorus nutrition in plants. Phosphorus has no substitute in food production, and the use of phosphate (Pi) fertilisers has increased crop yields to feed billions of people. This book covers phosphorus metabolism and phosphorus sensing molecular mechanisms and signalling in plants. It covers functions of phosphorus and crosstalk with other nutrients. It discusses how plants sense Pi deficiency and coordinate the responses via signalling pathways and networks for the regulation of Pi-deficiency responses.FEATURESDiscusses the latest developments in phosphate management in plantsProvides insights on emerging topics for sustainable approaches to managing phosphate shortageThrows light on the resilience of plants to phosphate deficiencyProvides extensive updates that serve as primary points for further researchExplains molecular and physiological mechanisms of phosphate transportThis book compiles the latest research from experts in the field. It is useful for advanced graduates and researchers in plant sciences and agriculture.
