Description:
Non-coding RNA in Plants: Modulation and Stress Responses is the first book to present the basics of the importance of long non-coding RNA and its potential in addressing abiotic and biotic stresses. Describing the MiRNA and small RNA and their role in plant development, this book explains the importance of long non-coding RNA in plants, including its significance in virus resistance, its transposable elements, effector trigger immunity, and fungal and bacterial resistance in plants. Non-coding RNA for Modulation and Stress Response in Plants presents the state-of-the-science from its historical foundation through application throughout the lifecycle and production of agricultural and non-agricultural plants.
While various coding has been explored within animal science, plant exposition has been minimal. This book is designed to inspire additional research and developments toward improved plant resiliency and production.Brief description: Dr Rahul Datta is Asst. Professor in the field of Soil Science currently is working at Mendel University in Brno, Czech Republic. His research has focused largely on increasing crop productivity using "green" and sustainable methods. Some of the most notable problems he has addressed through his research are drought stress, heavy metal toxicity in soil, and climate change greenhouse gas. His research has helped in increasing the quality and productivity of staple crops like wheat maize, barley, rice, and other crops like mangoes, spinach, and cotton. His work has been cited in excess of 2200 times. He has published extensively and is an editorial board member of the journals PlosOne, Sustainability (MDPI), BMC Plant Biology and Open Agriculture, in which he is overseeing a special issue on current trends in agriculture (MDPI). At present, He is also a member of the Soil Science Society of America.
