“…The antioxidant activity of A. corniculatum may play an important role in the salinity and drought stress [38,39]. Exogenous application of glycine betaine has a positive effect for the A. corniculatum under drought stress, which is favorable for mangrove plants to mitigate adverse effects [39].…”

“…The literature on mangrove ecosystems has rapidly increased during the last 15 years, since the publication of the now classic book The Botany of Mangroves (Tomlinson, 1986), and a number of relevant reviews have been written on the ecology and physiology of mangrove ecosystems components (Ball, 1988;Medina, 1999;Kathiresan and Bingham, 2001;Lüttge, 2002, Komiyama et al, 2008Gilman et al, 2008;Liang et al, 2008;Parida and Jha, 2010;Reef et al, 2010;Feller et al, 2010;Wang et al, 2011). Here we will emphasize some aspects that appear to us particularly relevant for understanding the physiological ecology of mangroves in the Anthropocene.…”

This essay addresses the conservation issues facing mangroves in the Anthropocene, defined as the era of human domination over the world. We review the laws, policies, international agreements, and local actions that address the conservation of mangrove forests in the Neotropics and relate them to the Anthropocene. Collaboration between governments, non-governmental organizations, and communities that depend on mangroves for their livelihood will be critical in the Anthropocene. The essay also reviews recent developments in mangrove ecology and ecophysiology that enlighten how mangroves might respond to changes in temperature and rainfall, sea level rise, and other anthropogenic and natural disturbances. Mangroves in the Anthropocene will also face changes in their species composition given the current movement of mangroves species across continental barriers as a result of human activity. These trends will lead to novel mangrove forests and in some cases expand the range of mangroves worldwide. The solution to mangrove persistence in the Anthropocene is not to isolate mangroves from people, but to regulate interactions between mangroves and humans through effective management. We will also have to expand the scope of the ecological analysis of mangrove ecosystems to include the social forces converging on the mangroves through an analytical approach that has been termed Social Ecology.Key words: carbon fluxes, climate change, community participation, ecophysiology, mangrove cover and cover change, novel ecosystems, oligo and eutrophy, protected areas, salinity stress. resumenEste ensayo aborda los problemas de conservación que enfrentan los manglares en el Antropoceno, definido como la época de la dominación humana sobre el mundo. En él repasamos las leyes, políticas, acuerdos internacionales y las acciones locales que se ocupan de la conservación de los bosques de mangle en el Neotrópico y se relacionan con el Antropoceno. La colaboración entre gobiernos, organizaciones no gubernamentales y las comunidades que dependen de los manglares para su sustento será decisiva en el Antropoceno. El ensayo también incluye comentarios sobre los avances recientes en ecología de manglares y en ecofisiología que explican cómo los manglares podrían responder a los cambios de temperatura y precipitación, el aumento del nivel del mar y otras perturbaciones naturales y antropogénicas. Los manglares en el Antropoceno también enfrentarán a cambios en su composición de especies, dado el actual movimiento de especies de manglares a través de barreras continentales como resultado de la actividad humana. Estas tendencias conducirán a nuevas formaciones de manglares y en algunos casos ampliarán la presencia de los manglares en todo el mundo. La solución a la persistencia de manglares en el Antropoceno es no aislar a los manglares de la gente, sino regular las interacciones entre los manglares y los seres humanos a través de una gestión eficaz. También tendremos que ampliar el alcance del análisis ecológico de los ecosistemas de ...

“…Plants respond to these stresses through various biochemical and physiological processes, including decreased stomatal conductance, carbon fixation and efficiency of light-harvesting mechanisms, repression of cell growth, and increased respiration and accumulation of osmolytes and proteins involved in stress tolerance [173]. To combat osmotic stress imposed by high salinity, plants require to synthesize compatible organic solutes, such as proline, glycine betaine, trehalose, sorbitol, mannitol, pinitol, and sucrose in the cytosol [29, 45,46,173,174,175]. To counteract the ill effects of salinity stress, plants have developed stress management strategies involving the action of antioxidants like ascorbic acid, glutathione, vitamin E, flavonoids, carotenoids [176], and antioxidant enzymes, such as SOD, CAT, guaiacol peroxidase, APX, monodehydroascorbate peroxidase, and dehydroascorbate peroxidase [177].…”

Climate Change and Plant Abiotic Stress Tolerance

Plants produce diverse secondary plant products that are triggered by a wide range of abiotic factors, such as drought, salinity, UV light, temperature, and cold stress, to cope with environmental changes. Global changes in environmental conditions due to human activities result in elevated carbon dioxide (CO 2 ). Alterations in ozone, UV light, and temperature, and so on, appear to influence endogenous plant metabolites for adaptation. Moreover, plants have adapted to produce several metabolites that are species-specific and dependent on environmental factors. Various plant metabolites, such as polyamines, flavonoids, jasmonic acid, methyljasmonate, glycine betaine, and so on, have a protective role during abiotic stress. In order to cope with various stresses, plants execute various mechanisms, including scavenging of reactive oxygen species (ROS), production of antioxidants, maintenance of membrane stability, and accumulation or adjustment of compatible solutes. This chapter focuses on the role of plant metabolites for their adaptation with special reference to secondary compounds on major global change factors, such as elevated CO 2 , ozone, UV light, temperature, and cold. Introduction: Plant Secondary MetabolitesSecondary metabolites produced by higher plants play an important role in many complex biotic and abiotic interactions [1,2]. Most secondary metabolites are synthesized from the intermediates of primary carbon metabolism via phenylpropanoid, shikimate, mevalonate, or methyl-erythritol phosphate pathways [3]. Several plant secondary metabolites are used for the production of medicines, dyes, insecticides, flavors, fragrances, and food quality (taste, color, and smell) [4-6]. Accumulation of plant secondary metabolites often occurs in plants under stresses, including various elicitors or signal molecules, altogether playing a crucial role in the adaptation of plants to the environment and in overcoming stress conditions [7][8][9]. Abiotic stresses have an effect on different cellular processes, such as growth, 705
