Beschreibung
This book explores the multifaceted role of glucosinolates in plant defense, and discusses their biosynthesis, structure and classification. It covers how glucosinolates contribute to plant resilience against a variety of biotic and abiotic stresses, making it a crucial resource for understanding plant defense mechanisms. The chapters cover a wide range of topics, including the genetic regulation of glucosinolate pathways, biotechnological approaches to enhance glucosinolate content in crops and glucosinolate-mediated defense mechanisms against insect herbivores. A thorough analysis of signaling pathways involved in glucosinolate-induced defense responses has been also provided. The book also explores the implications of glucosinolates in functional foods and human health, offering a unique perspective on the intersection of plant defense metabolites and nutrition. This book is a resource for researchers, scholars and practitioners in plant science, agriculture and biotechnology. Whether you are a scientist or industry professional, this book provides the knowledge and tools necessary to harness the power of glucosinolates for agricultural innovation and enhanced plant defense strategies.
