The persistence of higher night-time temperatures (HNT) over long periods during the crop cycle can potentially impact a wide range of growth and developmental stages. The major processes drastically affected by night-time warming, such as photosynthesis, respiration, etc., ultimately cause yield and economic losses. Despite this, HNT has not been significantly researched regarding its impact on plants. This new book provides a comprehensive understanding of the physiology of night-time warming, trait responses, advanced tools for phenotyping, and alleviation and mitigation strategies.

This book delves into the popular "Food vs. Fuel" arguments and examines the complicated interplay between biofuel and agricultural markets. It provides information on forage crops as potential third-generation sources of bioenergy, and their cultivation practices. The areas covered include methodologies to enhance production efficiency of bioenergy, metabolism involved in cellulosic ethanol production, influence of policy and technical implementation, and the consequent impact on biofuels. The discussion of current difficulties impeding the expansion of the cellulosic biofuel business, as well as potential solutions are discussed as well. This book also covers case studies describing the present biofuel policies and its consequences on both the energy as well as agricultural sectors, as well as analysis of the current and growing biofuel market.The gathered information in the book is an excellent source for phenotyping, trait improvement, and developing future crop stress-management strategies and models. Students, scientists, policymakers, and investors in the bioenergy business will find this book to be a useful resource. Also, it serves as an excellent reference book for agriculturists, plant scientists, climatologists, and research scholars.
