Strigolactones, Alkamides and Karrikins in Plants: Recent Updates and Future Prospects providescomprehensive knowledge on the various aspects of plant growth, physiology, and communicationassociated with the three potential biomolecules. Strigolactones have gained much importance in thelast decade as potential plant growth regulators. Likewise, alkamides are also known for their plantgrowth regulatory and pharmacological properties. The evolutionary signi□ficance of karrikins as apotential signaling molecule in different plant groups has been fascinating to plant physiologists andecologists. This book enables the reader to gain insights into the myriad role of these biomoleculesin plant physiology in normal and challenging environments.The book offers comprehensive coverage of the most essential topics, including:• Regulation of strigolactone biosynthesis.• Strigolactones and plant stress tolerance.• Strigolactones and parasitic plants.• Alkamides and plant-microbe interaction in rhizosphere.• Pharmacological potential of alkamides.• Molecular associations of strigolactones and karrikins.• Karrikins in plant biotechnology.• Commercial realities of karrikins in biodiversity restoration.In reference to the recent findings in the □field, the authors have provided insights into the role of eachbiomolecule and analyzed the future prospects of each cover area.The present book is the first of its kind, in which the three molecules have been integrated as potentialregulators of plant signaling, communication, and physiology in adverse conditions. Karrikins inplant biology is an emerging field in which its inter-relationship with strigolactones shall pave the wayto future investigations of the molecular mechanisms of plant stress tolerance, regulation of rootsystem architecture, and crop yield.
