Elicitation Methods for Improvement in Plant Secondary Metabolites
摘要
The book explores theoretical as well as rational information associated with elicitation as a biotechnological strategy and a potential method to produce and/or enhance the production of high value-low volume compounds in plants and other organisms. Further, the book is intended to provide a comprehensive insight into elicitation, diverse elicitors and their mechanism of action, applications, and future prospects and covers diverse phenomenon and selected case studies that a subject reader needs to know. Furthermore, an attempt has also been made to identify challenges in existing methodologies of elicitation and their feasible solutions through scientific discussions in various chapters provided by eminent research groups.
This book aids academicians, researchers and plant metabolite-based industry persons to understand the elicitor-mediated metabolic regulation in detail. It is also a reference for the students studying plant biochemical pathways and their regulation in response to environmental constraints.
