H2S in Plants: Past, Present and Beyond presents translational insights from animal to plant application. The recent discovery of several aspects of the function of H2S and its homeostasis in plant cells was propelled by discoveries in mammalian models. Based on the practical application of those analytical methods to plant science, this book will guide readers in the identification and qualification of this gasotransmitter in plant cell function. In addition, it explores important roles in complex signaling networks together with calcium cations, nitric oxide, hydrogen peroxide and plant hormones.

Presenting detailed descriptions of analytical methodologies, this book will enable the reader to determine H2S presence and understand it’s potential in improving stress resistance and crop productivity.
