The South Asian region is confronted with enormous challenges ranging from regime instability low level of economic development human security mutual conflicts of nations growing tentacles of terrorism militarisation of political systems to arms race and nuclearisation. It is amidst these constraints the regional grouping i.e. South Asian Association of Regional Co Operation not only addresses the different dimensions of human development strategies in South Asia in the 21 century it also provides a forum to deliberate over the challenges it faces and seeks viable remedies of these problems. Although its viability as a strong regional forum like ASEAN and GCC is often questioned nevertheless SAARC has successfully established its credentials in the comity of nations. This book probes all these issues that impinge upon the political and strategic dynamics of South Asia with remarkable subtl.

The climate change at global level is leading to the alterations in weather and climate extremes. These climate extremes impact severely on both human and ecosystems including economic losses, sectors such as tourism, agriculture, urban settlements and small island states, etc. Scientists predict that the frequency and intensity of these disasters are likely to increase as a result of the effects of climate change. Their susceptibility is principally based on the geographical, geological and socio-economic characteristics. During the last few decades many countries in Asia and Africa encountered unforeseen natural disasters apparently due to both the climate change and deficiencies of the built environment. It seems that in the last five years such calamities have been accelerated such as Monsoon.

This book is the outcome of global dedication for researches at physiological and molecular levels that substantially deals with challenges of ongoing international concern over the abiotic stress research, which as the major environmental factors affects plant growth-development. On the other hand, this book also highlights focused researches of significance on image-based plant phenotyping; phenomics and its application in physiological breeding; trace elements; plant functions; physiological basis of yield variation; medicinal and aromatic plants and so on. The aim is to make stronger the distinctive outcome of conscientious research in some of the very sensitive areas of Plant Physiology-Plant Molecular Physiology/ Molecular Biology that broadly highlights the recent developments and mechanisms underlying plant resilience to changing environments. This book brings collectively much needed twenty-one review articles commendably dealing with challenges of ongoing international concern over the abiotic s.

The conception of Volume 17 of the International Treatise Series on Advances in Plant Physiology has been made possible entirely due to worthy contributions from World Scientists, teachers and researchers of eminence in unequivocal fields. Scientists are well in search of specific and complete literature pertaining to meaningful research for the holistic development of agriculture. The undertaking of this Treatise Series on Plant Physiology is to genuinely categorize the insufficiencies in view of mounting consequential researches for increasing productivity, prosperity and sustainability of agriculture through influential and developing technologies for restructuring metabolic limitations most responsive to abiotic stress factors. Certainly, our idea is to recognize innovative science of value across the broad disciplinary range of the treatise. The aim is to make stronger the distinctive outcome of conscientious research in some of the very sensitive areas of Plant Physiology-Plant Molecular Physiology/ M.
