Summary
This Special Issue focuses on plant stress physiology and the mechanisms underlying crop responses to environmental challenges. It aims to compile the latest research on tolerance and adaptation to abiotic stresses (e.g., drought, salinity, extreme temperatures) and biotic stresses (e.g., pathogens, pests). The scope includes studies on physiological traits, molecular mechanisms, genetic and genomic analyses, as well as breeding strategies and biotechnological approaches for developing resilient crop varieties. We welcome original research and review articles that contribute to advancing sustainable agriculture and enhancing global food security.
