Climate Change and Legumes Stress Mitigation for Sustainability and Food Security, Mohammad Zabed Hossain,Hossain Md Anawar,D.R. Chaudhary, Editör, CRC, New York , London, ss.126-150, 2023
One of the most important global problems of the current century is climate change.
With the age of technology, the increase in population density in cities, uncontrolled
industrialization, rapid destruction of the natural environment, urbanization, and increase in
fossil fuel consumption damage the ecological balance and increase environmental problems.
The most important of these environmental problems is the decrease or complete destruction
of crop plants that can often result in death for human life. Factors such as rising temperatures
by 2050, severe drought due to increased evaporation and changing rainfall distribution, and
increased CO2 levels due to greenhouse and agricultural gas emissions may also have an
impact on other plants such as legumes. Given such problems, it is important to develop an
efficient agricultural production system and develop durable high-yielding varieties and use of
crop varieties to cope with harsh environmental conditions. Methods to study the molecular
processes of plants against heat tolerance, to develop stress-tolerant varieties, and to grow
agriculturally important crop plants exposed to high temperature stress can be established.
New strategies can be implemented and the resistance of the plant to tolerate heat stress can
be improved with the latest research and transgenic approaches on the physiological and
biochemical events. This chapter provides a comprehensive overview of the effects of high
temperature on legume crops as well as molecular approaches to reduce risks on these crops.
