Inhaltsangabe

Advances in Botanical Research, Volume 103 provides a timely and comprehensive update on the current knowledge of stomata development and operation in salt-grown plants. The range of topics covered includes evolution of stomata for adaptation to saline conditions, comparative analysis of proteomic, transcriptomic and metabolomic profiles of stomata guard cells between halophytes and glycophyte species and their reprogramming under salt stress, the molecular nature of the signals that control stomata aperture and their integration at the cellular and whole-plant level, and ecophysiological aspects of stomata operation in crop and halophytes species.

Over his research career, Sergey has published over 350 peer-reviewed papers and successfully supervised to completion 42 PhD students. He is an ISI Highly Cited researcher for the last five consecutive years and in 2019 was ranked as most cited researcher in the field of Botany in the world. His H-index is 90, and his work has been cited over 27,000 times. He is a current Editor in Chief for Functional Plant Biology and a member of editorial boards of 10 international journals. He is a former president of the Australian Society of Plant Scientists and holds a title of the Visiting or Distinguished Professor in several overseas universities.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Soil salinization takes out of production approximately 3 ha of arable land every minute and results in over US$30 billion annual losses in crop and pasture production. To the large extent this loss results from salinity-induced restrictions in water availability and reduction in CO2 assimilation due to compromised stomata operation. Stomata represent the microscopic sphincters inserted into the wax-covered epidermis that balance CO2 intake for photosynthetic carbon gain and concomitant water loss. This volume provides a timely and comprehensive update on the current knowledge of stomata development and operation in salt-grown plants. The range of topics covered includes evolution of stomata for adaptation to saline conditions; comparative analysis of proteomic, transcriptomic, and metabolomic profiles of stomata guard cells between halophytes and glycophyte species and their reprogramming under salt stress; molecular nature of the signals that control stomata aperture and their integration at the cellular and whole-plant level; and ecophysiological aspects of stomata operation in crop and halophytes species.
