However, due to environmental fluctuations, legumes are often exposed to different environmental stresses, leading to problems with growth and development, and ultimately, decreased yield.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis timely review explains the transcriptomics, proteomics, genomics, metabolomics, transgenomics, functional genomics and phenomics of a wide range of different leguminous crops under biotic and abiotic stresses, and their genetic and molecular responses. Amongst others the text describes the effect of nutrient deficiency, pesticides, salt and temperature stress on legumes.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eImportantly, the book explores the physiobiochemical, molecular and omics approaches that are used to overcome biotic and abiotic constraints in legumes. It looks at the exogenous application of phytoprotectants; the role of nutrients in the alleviation of abiotic stress; and the microbial strategy for the improvement of legume production under hostile environments.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKey features:   \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003edemonstrates how to mitigate the negative effect of stress on leguminous crops, and how to improve the yield under stress\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ethe most up-to-date research in the field\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ewritten by an international team of active researchers and practitioners across academia, industry and non-profit organisations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThis volume is a valuable and much-needed resource for scientists, professionals and researchers working in plant science, breeding, food security, crop improvement and agriculture worldwide.
