This book collates various aspects of stress tolerance in crop plants. It primarily focuses on the heat and temperature related stress, starting from the severity of the problem on quantity and quality of yield under the threat of global climate change. The content also explores other mechanistic dimensions such as physiochemical and molecular mechanism underlying thermotolerance, signaling mechanism under heat stress, role of heat shock proteins in modulating thermotolerance, omics approach for development of climate smart-crop. Chapters discuss different approaches used in the past to develop heat stress tolerant crop plants, list of developed thermotolerant agriculturally important crop plants, redox homeostasis under heat stress, nutrient uptake and use efficiency in plants under heat stress and much more. The book is a useful compilation for researchers working in the area of abiotic stress tolerance in crop plants, as well as for students of plant physiology and agricultural sciences.

Dr. Ranjeet Ranjan Kumar has completed his UG from University of Agriculture Sciences, Bangalore and PhD from Division of Biochemistry, IARI, New Delhi. His research area is 'stress-genomics and nutritional fortification of millets'. Dr. Ranjan has elucidated several mechanism and modals of heat stress tolerance and remodeled the starch biosynthesis pathway in wheat. He has published more than 80 research papers, 5 Books, 15 Book chapters and several popular articles, bulletins and manuals in the areas of nutrition, stress tolerance and basic principle of Genetic Engineering. He has also guided 4 M.Sc. and 2 Ph.D. Students till date and 2 MSc and one Ph.D. student is presently working under his supervision. Dr. Ranjan has organized more than 8 Center for Advanced Faculty Training (CAFT) for the assistant professors and ARS scientists from ICAR institutes and SAUs. He has experience of handling more than 15 externally funded projects by various agencies viz., DST, DBT, BARC National Fund, etc. Dr. Ranjan has been accolade with various prestigious awards like young scientist award, young scientist associate award, scientist of the year award, etc. He is Fellow of Society of Applied Biotechnology (SAB) and recently been selected for the Associateship of The National Academy of Sciences, India.
Dr. Shelly Praveen has completed her PhD from Indian Agricultural Research Institute, New Delhi. Her research area is nutritional enhancement and development of strategies for biotic stress tolerance. She has experience of more than 27 years of research and teaching. She has elucidated several mechanisms of host virus interaction and successfully demonstrated the management of economically important viral diseases of tomato through transgenic resistance. Her work in developing the efficient plant transformation vectors and tomato transgenics has been licensed to seed industry for large scale testing and moving towards commercialization. She also worked on genomics and functional genomics of different group of plant viruses. Her contribution in full length sequencing of papaya ring spot virus from India has helped in developing virus based resistance strategy. She has published more than 85 research papers in peer reviewed journals with several books, book chapters, popular article, bulletins and technical manuals. She has guided 7 M.Sc. and 10 PhD students in diverse areas of biotic stress tolerance. She has experience of handling more than 12 externally funded projects and currently she is leading a very prestigious networking project of ICAR under Niche Area of Excellence for improving the shelf-life of pearl millet flour. Her research contributions are reflected very well through various prestigious awards like Panjabrao Deshmukh Outstanding Woman Scientist Award 2019, Bharat Ratna Dr C. Subramaniam Award for Outstanding Teachers 2019, Shri Harikrishna Shastri Memorial Award, etc. and her induction as a fellow of National Academy of Sciences, India (NASI) and National Academy of Agricultural Sciences (NAAS).
