Plant Growth Regulators for Climate-Smart Agriculture : CRC Press : 9780367623432 : 0367623439 : 28 Jul 2021 : "Climatic conditions are key determinants of plant growth, whether at the scale of temperature regulation of the cell cycle, or at the scale of the geographic limits for a particular species. The climate is changing, due to human activities - particularly the emission of greenhouse gases - and therefore the conditions for the establishment, growth, reproduction, survival and distribution of plant species are changing. In contrast to animals, plants can continuously cease and resume growth. This flexibility in their architecture and growth patterns is partly achieved by the action of plant hormones. Still, the role of PGRs in agriculture is modest compared to other agrochemicals, such as fungicides, herbicides, and insecticides. Plant Growth Regulators inagriculture is an invaluable guide to the varied roles filled by PGRs in the attainment of higher-quality, better-yielding cr
