Preface
Plant nutrients are the vital elements for plant growth and survival. Among the seventeen essential plant nutrients, only three (C, H and O) are derived from the atmosphere and the rest are supplied either from soil or by fertilizers. Each of the nutrients plays a unique role in plant life cycle and their requirement varies with the plant species and growth stages. Both the deficiency and excess of these nutrients render negative effects on plant growth and development. Besides, to ensure the efficient utilization of the nutrients, the environmental factors should be favourable. Over the last few decades, abiotic stresses have turned into an important topic of
