Introduction of high-throughput sequencing technologies enabled identification and characterization of numerous cation transporters encoding gene families in plants. In the last decades several important cation transporters have been identified and characterized from various model and crop plants. Cation Transporters in Plants presents all the information about the major cation transporters together with the help of various experts throughout the world, as well as the development of various new strategies to cope up with the adverse effects of various abiotic and biotic stresses. The book will serve as a very important repository for the scientist, researcher, academician and industrialist to enhance their knowledge about cation transport in plants. Further, the application part listed in this book will facilitate the agricultural scientist and industries in the future of crop designing strategies. It will provide an alternative strategy for abiotic and biotic stress management in agricultural and horticultural crops. It will also further improve the basic knowledge of the origin and mechanism of cation homeostasis and their role in developmental transition and stress regulation.

Author Biography

Dr. Upadhyay is currently working as an Assistant Professor at the Department of Botany, Panjab University, Chandigarh, India. He has been working in the field of Plant Biotechnology for more than 16 years. He is currently working in functional genomics. His research group at PU has characterized numerous important defence-related protein families such as receptor-like kinases, antioxidant enzymes, calcium transporters, chitinases, lectins, etc. They are also characterizing long non-coding RNAs related to the abiotic and biotic stress response. He has authored more than 130 publications including research papers in leading journals of international repute, national and international patents, book chapters and books. He has been awarded the NAAS Young scientist award (2017-18) and NAAS-Associate (2018) from the National Academy of Agricultural Sciences, India, INSA Medal for Young Scientist (2013) from the Indian National Science Academy, India, NASI- Young Scientist Platinum Jubilee Award (2012) from the National Academy of Sciences, India, and Altech Young Scientist Award (2011).
