Conscientiousness at global extent to systematically organize relevant research work approved in the realm of Plant Physiology, Biochemistry & Plant Molecular Biology in the last few decades all the way through creation of an International Treatise Series was initiated in the late last decade with publication of Advances in Plant Physiology. In fact this has been made feasible absolutely due to laudable contributions from World Scientists of eminence in specific fields. It is important to mention that within a short span of six years the treatise is made possible to attain an international status.
The Volume 6 is indeed unparallel in its organization in several manners by sincere cooperation of over forty nine experienced, praiseworthy and well-known scientists/ stalwarts, of which thirty six participated from abroad. The instant literature coming in innumerable journals of repute reflecting new technologies in plant sciences require to be assembled in a positive, productive and helpful manner by experts all over the globe. In this Volume, efforts have been made to compile very needful review articles with a serious view to scientific future planning and for really making direct move towards indispensable research. Besides these, the Book also inspires us to be conscious enough upon the two lines of investigation, practical and fundamental, which must always go hand in hand. There can never be a logical parting of these two aspects of our science. Correspondingly, there can never be a rational separation of the pure physiologists from the practical physiologists. Our tasks are one and we must learn to march together in our performance This volume appears to be unique in several ways especially by inclusion of A Few but vital new sections, viz., Biotechnology, gene expression and genetically engineered crops; Transgenic plants Physiology and biochemistry, etc. including many worthy sections to sub-divide Volume 6 into ten different parts to comprise nineteen substantial chapters. Illustrious scientists all over the globe have contributed these chapters, who have been actively engaged in a variety of unequivocal areas of research with all-embracing knowledge, time-honoured record of distinction and outstanding authorities. They have put into producing up-to-date reviews, which are duly evaluated by the respective Consulting Editors of international stature from India, U.K., U.S.A., Argentina, Australia, France, Germany, Japan, Spain, Portugal, Israel, and Morocco to strengthen the implementation of the noble theme, which is enormously crucial in the new millennium
In fact the treatise is prosperity for interdisciplinary exchange of information. Apart from satisfying the acute need of this kind of exclusive edition in different volumes for research teams and scientists engaged in various facets of research in Plant Physiology and Plant Molecular Biology in traditional and agricultural universities, institutes and research laboratories throughout the world, it would be extremely a constructive book and a voluminous reference material for acquiring advanced knowledge by post-graduate and Ph.D. scholars in response to the innovative courses in Plant Physiology, Plant Biochemistry, Plant Molecular Biology, Plant Biotechnology, Plant Pathology, Microbiology, Soil Science & Agricultural Chemistry, Agronomy, Horticulture, Environmental Sciences, and Botany.
