Session: Symposium--Role of Secondary Metabolites in Biotic and Abiotic Stress Tolerance (ASA, CSSA and SSSA International Annual Meetings (2015))

251 Symposium--Role of Secondary Metabolites in Biotic and Abiotic Stress Tolerance

Oral Session

C02 Crop Physiology and Metabolism

Secondary plant metabolite play a significant role in tolerance of crop plants to both biotic and abiotic stresses. We will invite and bring scientist to disuss these issues to cover multiple topics of interest.
