What is Plant Secondary Metabolites in Stress Tolerance about?

Secondary metabolites are natural defense elements that play a vital role in plant defense against adverse environmental conditions. The amounts of secondary metabolites increase significantly to adapt to harsh conditions. The increase in the synthesis and accumulation of plant secondary metabolites to cope with abiotic and biotic stress indicates a strong link between secondary metabolites and biotic and abiotic stress tolerance. In this chapter, the contribution of secondary metabolites to plant defense against biotic and abiotic stress factors such as salinity, drought, heat and cold, heavy metals, and UV is discussed.
