The Plant Hormone Ethylene 1st Edition

The Plant Hormone Ethylene (1st Edition) by Nafees Khan, Antonio Ferrante, and Sergi Munné-Bosch — a definitive, modern exploration of one of plant biology’s most influential signaling molecules. This essential volume captures the latest advances in ethylene biosynthesis, perception, signaling pathways, and its diverse roles in growth, development, stress responses, and postharvest physiology.

Discover clear, research-driven chapters that bridge fundamental science and practical applications for agronomists, horticulturists, crop scientists, and graduate students. The authors synthesize molecular insights with field-relevant perspectives, showing how ethylene management can improve crop yield, fruit ripening, senescence control, and resilience to biotic and abiotic stress across temperate and tropical cropping systems. Case studies and regional examples make the content relevant to practitioners from South Asia to Europe, Africa to the Americas.

Whether you’re studying ethylene signaling networks, designing breeding strategies, or optimizing postharvest handling, this book equips you with actionable knowledge: experimental approaches, interpretation of contemporary findings, and implications for sustainable agriculture and climate-adaptive practices. The prose is authoritative yet accessible, making complex mechanisms understandable without sacrificing scientific rigor.

Ideal for researchers, advanced students, extension specialists, and industry professionals seeking to translate ethylene science into real-world benefits. Add this comprehensive reference to your library to stay at the forefront of plant-hormone research and applied crop management.
