For plants to adapt to climate change, plant chemistry is essential, and knowledge of these mechanisms can build climate-resilient crop development methods. Sustainable ecosystems depend on ecosystem services including pollination, soil health, and phytoremediation, all of which are maintained by plant chemistry. The book lays the groundwork for future investigation and innovation by highlighting new developments and potential lines of inquiry in the fields of synthetic biology, plant chemical biology, and ecological restoration. In this extensive volume, we have focused on the intricate relationships that exist between plants, their surroundings, and other living things, and underscore the importance of plant chemical characteristics in promoting climate resistance. Present volume looks at how plant metabolomes are impacted by climate change, which alter ecosystem services and function. Researchers in the fields of ecology, plant sciences, and environmental sciences will gain from its thorough examination of plant chemistry and climate resistance. Similarly, the book will be an invaluable tool for undergraduate and graduate students studying ecology, environmental studies, and plant sciences to comprehend the intricate relationships between plants and their surroundings. The book’s useful applications and insights into sustainable agriculture and ecosystem management will also be valued by policy makers, conservationists, and agricultural professionals.
