Transporters and Plant Osmotic Stress focuses on the potential negative impact of abiotic stresses on plant health and crop yield. The book focuses on the current state of knowledge of the biochemical and molecular regulation of several classes of membrane transporters during different osmotic stresses and their probable mechanisms of operation in plant stress tolerance. The comprehensive discussion presented in this book highlights steps appropriate for mitigating multiple forms of abiotic stresses utilizing transporter proteins.

Edited by leading experts and authored by top researchers from around the world, Transporters and Plant Osmotic Stress will be valuable to researchers, academicians, and scientists to enhance their knowledge and inspire further research in the field of transporters with respect to abiotic stress responses. It is complimented by its companion book titled Metal and Nutrient Transporters in Abiotic Stress.

Aryadeep Roychoudhury is Professor of Life Sciences at Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU), New Delhi, with over 20 years of research experience in plant molecular biology and biotechnology. He earned his PhD from Bose Institute under Jadavpur University and completed postdoctoral research on transgenic rice for enhanced salt and drought tolerance. His work currently focuses on molecular and physiological responses of plants to abiotic stresses such as fluoride, heavy metals, salinity, and drought, including regulation by transcription factors and signaling pathways. Prof. Roychoudhury has led multiple government-funded projects and is recognized among the Top 2% Scientists in the list released by Stanford University in collaboration with Elsevier. Dr. Durgesh Kumar Tripathi is currently an Associate Professor at Amity Institute of Organic Agriculture, Amity University Uttar Pradesh, Noida, India. He is the recipient of ‘Dr DS Kothari Post-Doctoral Fellowship’ of the UGC, New Delhi. Dr. Tripathi has received his D.Phil. in Science from University of Allahabad, India. During this period, Dr. Tripathi worked extensively on phytolith analysis, crop stress physiology, agro-nanotechnology and molecular biology. He has expertise on laser spectroscopy. His research interests encompass stress tolerance mechanisms in plants. Presently, he is working with nano-materials and their interactions with plants to find out their detoxification mechanisms, he is also working on Silicon, Nitric oxide and hormonal crosstalk against abiotic stress in plants.
