Nitric Oxide in Plant Resilience to Abiotic Stress offers a detailed examination of this essential gasotransmitter’s pivotal role in bolstering plant defenses against environmental stressors. Part of the Plant Gasotransmitters and Molecules with Hormonal Activity series, the volume investigates the molecular mechanisms of nitric oxide (NO) biosynthesis and signaling, emphasizing how post-translational modifications like S-nitrosylation and tyrosine nitration govern key targets to activate adaptive stress responses. It systematically examines NO’s properties, detection techniques, and its regulation under both optimal and adverse conditions, providing a comprehensive understanding of how it modulates plant functions.

Expanding beyond fundamental processes, the volume highlights NO’s crucial involvement across a spectrum of abiotic stresses—drought, salinity, temperature extremes, heavy metals, and UV radiation—unveiling its capacity to mitigate damage and strengthen plant resilience. It also discusses the crosstalk between NO and other signaling molecules, such as phytohormones and emerging growth regulators, revealing synergistic pathways that underpin sustainable agriculture.

Designed for researchers, advanced students, and plant scientists worldwide, this work illuminates the potential of NO to drive innovations in breeding strategies, enabling crop improvement to overcome the challenges posed by a changing climate and expanding environmental pressures.

Ravi Gupta is an assistant professor at Kookmin University, Seoul, South Korea. He obtained his PhD in Plant Physiology and Biochemistry from the University of Delhi, India, and then spent more than five years as a postdoctoral fellow and Research Professor at Pusan National University, Busan, Korea. Dr. Gupta is the author of more than 130 scientific publications and has also edited two books. He is a recipient of many prestigious national and international awards and is serving as an Editorial board member of several reputed journals. Dr. Gupta has gained almost 15 years of experience in the field of plant stress physiology. Yiming Wang is a professor at Nanjing Agricultural University, Nanjing, China. He obtained his PhD in Agriculture from Gyeongsang National University, Korea, and did his postdoctoral research in Max Planck Institute for Plant Breeding Research, Germany. Dr. Wang has focused on the research on plant-microbe interaction for 20 years, and has published more than 30 scientific publications as first and/or correspondence author. Riyazuddin Riyazuddin is a postdoctoral researcher at the Instituto de Bioingeniería, Universidad Miguel Hernández, Elche, Spain. His research interests include determining the role of LSD1-like protein complexes in regulating gene expression and chromatin structure. He worked as a research associate at the Institute of Plant Biology, Biological Research Centre, Hungary, where he was involved in characterizing RLCK kinases in environmental stress responses. He investigated the role of glutathione peroxidase in response to salt and drought stresses, as well as its regulation by phytohormones. He has authored more than 20 scientific publications and several book chapters related to stress physiology. In addition, he has been awarded three international fellowship grants from the Hungarian government, as well as international awards, including the Young Research Scholar Award and the Best Young Poster Presentation Award. Additionally, he has presented my work at over 20 national and international conferences.
