This fully updated new edition explores new techniques for studying plant stress. This includes novel methodologies such as MeRIP-seq for identifying changes in m6A profiles, isolation of stress granules, and additional methodologies such as MNase-seq for identifying nucleosome occupancy, alternative splicing analysis, identifying proteins that interact with long noncoding RNAs, untargeted metabolomics, ROS and NO measurements, priming-related protocols, growth-promoting bacteria isolation and functional characterization, as well as isolating mutants for stress-regulated genes using CRISPR technology. Written for the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, chapters feature introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step and readily reproducible protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.

Authoritative and up-to-date, Plant Stress Tolerance: Methods and Protocols, Third Edition provides a wide range of protocols catering to the needs of plant physiologists, biochemists, and molecular biologists interested in probing this vital area of study.
