Climate Change and Biotic Factors

Explores how climate change influences the dynamics of pests, diseases, and other biotic stresses, and its role in response of plants and microorganisms. Studies the effects of climate change on pest and disease incidence in crop plants. Discusses the potential of using molecular tools for mitigating ill-effects of climate change. Climate change has more impact on the world than just rising temperatures and extreme weather events. It also impacts the intricate interactions between organisms, including pests, pathogens, and other biotic factors, which are critical components of the balance maintained in nature. This new book delves into the intricate relationship between climate change and the interplay of biotic factors, shedding light on the molecular mechanisms underlying these interactions.
