Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Nowadays, increasing world population and ever more pressing climate change pose major challenges for the future of the human species. The choice of plant varieties for food production, both for humans and animals, and the possibility of maintaining genetic diversity in natural environments, should be a major goal of modern scientific and technological research efforts. Understanding both molecular and non-molecular mechanisms of how plants are affected by ongoing climate change, and discovering new ways to increase plant productivity, is an important step toward new frontiers of growth and technological advancement in modern society. Authors are cordially invited to participate with original articles or reviews on this broad topic. The collected data will certainly add to the understanding of these issues that increasingly burden modern society.
