Beskrivning

The Role of Gasotransmitters In the Amelioration of Arsenic Toxicity in Plants: Biology and Biotechnology, in the Plant Gasotransmitter series, provides research on how gasotransmitters can reduce the stress faced by plants through arsenic contamination. With a strong focus on metabolic processes, the book presents the various pathways and mechanisms associated with gasotransmitters as part of arsenic amelioration. Initial chapters discuss the effects of arsenic on the plant genome and metabolome, as well as the mechanisms behind the uptake and translocation of arsenic in plants. The book then takes a deep dive into the role of gasotransmitters, highlighting plant physiological responses.

This is an essential resource for students, researchers and agronomists interested in plant physiology, biochemistry and plant hormones.

Explains the physiological, biochemical and molecular aspects of how gasotransmitters can mitigate stress by arsenic in plants
Presents how arsenic is found in the environment, along with associated problems with arsenic contamination
Highlights the impact of food processing on minimizing arsenic and other potentially toxic elements in edible plants

He worked as a researcher at CNPq DTI on determination of metals and pesticides in food in FCFRP-USP. He has a Ph.D. in Science (FCFRP-USP, 2012), where he worked with chemical speciation of arsenic in food, with part of this doctoral held at the University of Aberdeen, Scotland (Scotland, UK). He has more than 88 articles published in the areas of analytical chemistry, toxicology, food analysis and metabolism of chemicals. Currently he is a Professor in Analytical Chemistry at the Federal University of ABC. Dr. Gonzalo Tortella Fuentes is currently working as a Researcher in the Center of Environmental Biotechnology, Scientific and Technological Bioresources Nucleus (BIOREN) at Universidad de La Frontera, Temuco, Chile. He obtained his D.Sc. in Natural Resources from the same University. His research line focuses on Environmental Biotechnology, Environmental Microbiology, and Nanoecotoxicology. He has supervised 3 undergraduate theses and has 2 undergraduates currently in his supervision. He has published (26) articles in journals, (1) book chapter, (40) papers in international congress and (11) papers in national congress contributed as author/co-author. Dr. Allan Klynger da Silva Lobato, currently works as a professor at the Federal Rural University of the Amazon, affiliate member of the Brazilian Academy of Sciences and permanent professor in the Postgraduate Program in Agronomy at UFRA. His intellectual production comprising more than 170 articles published in relevant journals from several continents and more than 2400 citations and an h-index of 26. He has led continuous efforts by a research group with a professional aim to investigate the benefits of molecules (organics and synthetics) on the metabolism of higher plants under biotic and abiotic stresses, as well as how to explain routes and how substances mitigate or prevent negative effects. https://orcid.org/0000-0002-2641-6122.
