The book deals with novel applications of plant derived natural agents and their derivatives in the food, textile dyeing, medicinal, and environmental areas.
Describes the basics of ROS metabolism in plants and examines the broad range of ROS signaling mechanisms New discoveries about the effects of reactive oxygen species (ROS) on plants have turned ROS from being considered a bane into a boon, because their roles have been discovered in many plant developmental processes as signaling molecules.
