Agricultural Crop Improvement: Plant and Soil Relationships addresses key issues of crop plants yield and production, with molecular and physiological interventions to evolve future strategies that will overcome these challenges faced by the agricultural sector.
Larger amounts of nutritious food are required to feed the growing world population, which is a great challenge due to water shortages and reduced crop plants yield. To overcome this issue, there must be improvement in crop plant production systems. Agricultural Crop Improvement: Plant and Soil Relationships addresses key issues of crop plants yield and production, with molecular and physiological interventions to evolve future strategies that will overcome these challenges faced by the agricultural sector.
Features
· Investigates modern and traditional agricultural techniques, including nanomaterials, nanosensors, genetic engineering, molecular breeding, nutrient and plant hormone interactions, microbiome engineering, soil enzymes, biostimulants, and intercropping.
· Explores how technologies and scientific advancements from biotechnology, information technology, and environmental science, are revolutionizing sustainable farming practices.
Agricultural Crop Improvement: Plant and Soil Relationships is a valuable source of information for researchers and extension workers involved in sustainable crop plants improvement and practices, and a useful resource for students and scientists working on aspects of agriculture, botany, plant science, crop physiology, crop biotechnology, and microbiology.

Azamal Husen is a Professor at Sankalchand Patel University, Visnagar, India; and Adjunct Professor at Graphic Era (Deemed to be University), Dehradun, Uttarakhand, India. He is also working as a Visiting Professor at University Putra Malaysia, Selangor, Malaysia; and acting as a Foreign Delegate at Wolaita Sodo University, Wolaita, Ethiopia. Previously, he served as Professor and Head of the Department of Biology, University of Gondar, Ethiopia. He also worked as a Visiting Faculty of the Forest Research Institute and the Doon College of Agriculture and Forest at Dehra Dun, India. His research and teaching experience of 25 years encompasses biogenic nanomaterial fabrication and application; plant responses to nanomaterials; plant adaptation to harsh environments at the physiological, biochemical, and molecular levels; herbal medicine; and clonal propagation for improvement of tree species. He has conducted research sponsored by the World Bank, the National Agricultural Technology Project, the Indian Council of Agriculture Research, the Indian Council of Forest Research Education, and the Japan Bank for International Cooperation. Husen has published extensively (~300) and served on the Editorial Board and as reviewer of reputed journals published by Elsevier, Frontiers Media, Taylor & Francis, Springer Nature, RSC, Oxford University Press, Sciendo, the Royal Society, CSIRO, PLOS, MDPI, John Wiley & Sons, and UPM Journals. He is on the advisory board of Cambridge Scholars Publishing, UK. He is a fellow of the Plantae group of the American Society of Plant Biologists, and a member of the International Society of Root Research, Asian Council of Science Editors, and International Natural Product Sciences. He is Editor-in-Chief of the American Journal of Plant Physiology, and a Series Editor of Exploring Medicinal Plants (Taylor & Francis Group, USA); Plant Biology, Sustainability, and Climate Change (Elsevier, USA); and Smart Nanomaterials Technology (Springer Nature, Singapore).
