With contributions from over 70 international experts, this reference provides comprehensive coverage of plant physiological stages and processes under both normal and stressful conditions. It emphasizes environmental factors, climatic changes, developmental stages, and growth regulators as well as linking plant and crop physiology to the production of food, feed, and medicinal compounds. Offering over 300 useful tables, equations, drawings, photographs, and micrographs, the book covers cellular and molecular aspects of plant and crop physiology, plant and crop physiological responses to heavy metal concentration and agrichemicals, computer modeling in plant physiology, and more.

No date is mentioned for the first edition, but the second is said to be two-thirds new material, based on subsequent findings. The handbook is designed as a comprehensive reference for students, instructors, researchers, field specialists, and others interested in plant and crop physiology who may or may not be specialists in it. Among the overall themes are growth responses to environmental factors and climatic changes, the physiology of growth and developmental stages, cellular and molecular aspects, physiological aspects of production processes, natural hormones and plant gene, responses to heavy metal concentration and agrochemicals, relationships between lower and higher plants, and computer modeling.
