The title focuses on the role of nitric oxide in the plant defense system against pathogens, parasites and environmental stress response. Optimal performance of this system is critical for high crop yields while using limited amount of pesticides, making research on nitric oxide a valuable subject not only foracademic institutions but also for the agrochemical industry, in particular in rapidly emerging economies such as India or China. In addition, there is a strong trend in industrialized countries towards an agricultural system which relies less on pesticides resulting in a truly global audience for this book. The title is written by a truly global team of researchers from Europe, Asia and the Americas with strong ties to agricultural research centers or the agrochemical industry in each continent.
