1. Agronomic Biofortification- An Effective Tool for Alleviating Nutrient Deficiency in Plants and Human Diet -- 2. The Role of Biofortification in Enhancing Plant Growth, Development, Yield, and Quality -- 3. Improving Zinc Biofortification in Plants 4. Biofortification of Zinc: Uptake from the Soil and Transportation up to the Grains through ZIP Family Transporters -- 5. Mechanisms of Iron Uptake and Homeostasis in Plants: Implications for Biofortification in Cereal Grains -- 6. Selenium Biofortification in Agronomic Crops -- 7. Selenium Bio-fortification in Cereal Crops: An Overview -- 8. Nanoparticles Based Biofortification in Food Crops: Overview, Implications, and Prospects -- 9. Role of Nanoparticles in Improving Biofortification -- 10. Role of Nanoparticles in Improving Biofortification of Zinc and Iron in Vegetables -- 11. Scope of Seed Priming in Inducing Biofortification in Plants -- 12. Biofortification Through Seed Priming in Food Crops; Potential Benefits and Future Scope -- 13. Biochar for the Improvement of Crop Production -- 14. Phytohormones as Stress Mitigators in Plants.

This book provides a comprehensive summary of the recent advances in the biofortification of plants under climate change and how it affects food security globally. The need for mineral biofortification to eradicate or alleviate malnutrition through sustainable agriculture is also discussed. Biofortification of edible plants is considered the most appropriate approach to alleviate nutritional problems and nutrient deficiencies. In contrast, biofortification focuses on improving the nutritional content of the region's current agricultural biodiversity while preserving its habits and customs. Emphasis is also placed on recent advances and developments in omics, particularly metabolomics and related techniques, to unravel the potential alterations in plants caused by biofortification. The book brings together eminent scientists to present the latest developments in the field. This timely publication addresses practical scenarios of bio-fortified food production and climate change. The book focuses on the methods, techniques, and environmental changes used to enhance and improve agricultural products. This book is one of the first to provide information on the use of modern biotechnologies to modify crops for health benefits. It also examines the mechanisms of the plant responses to genetically induced biofortification, the production and responses of fortified plants under climate change, and their effects on food security. The book will be useful for students and researchers, especially crop scientists, environmental scientists, biotechnologists, botanists, and agronomists, to understand the techniques and mechanisms of biofortification, and responses of biofortified plants under climate change.
