The Physiology of Plants Under Stress, Abiotic Factors (Vol 1)

This is really great book and provide readers the basic understanding of how plants behave under less favorable conditions, particularly from the abiotic factors. I found about this book is very suitable for the students (graduate and undergraduate), researchers, as well as for the instructors.  This book is very easy to understand how stressors, i.e.,  high and low temperatures, drought and flood  influence plant growth and development, and finally  crop yields.  The structure of presentation is very flowing.. the way to describe 'under stress' is very well presented and easy to understand.
