Plant Breeding Reviews By Jules Janick

Plant Breeding Reviews By Jules Janick
Plant Breeding Reviews By Jules Janick
Plant Breeding Reviews presents state-of-the-art reviews on plant genetics and the breeding of all types of crops by both traditional means and molecular methods. Many of the crops widely grown today stem from a very narrow genetic base; understanding and preserving crop genetic resources is vital to the security of food systems worldwide. The emphasis of the series is on methodology, a fundamental understanding of crop genetics, and applications to major crops. The series is sponsored by the American Society for Horticultural Science and appears in the form of one or two volumes per year.

Plant Biotechnology and Molecular Markers by S. Srivastava


Plant Biotechnology and Molecular Markers by S. Srivastava
Publisher: Springer; 1 edition (April 30, 2004) | ISBN: 1402019114 | Pages: 420 | PDF | 4 MB

The book consists of articles contributed by experts in the respective field of biotechnology. During the last couple of years, biotechnological approaches are being employed for the improvement in quality and quantity of oil crops, cereals, legumes and medicinal plants. Considering the rapid depletion of precious natural wealth, micropropagation through tissue culture has assumed added significance. This book, timely presentation of current status of achievements by active researchers as well as future prospects, deals with some thrust areas of plant biotechnology. For the purpose of prevention of bio-piracy molecular markers have emerged as the most reliable tool for indexing genetic polymorphism of plants. The chapters testify the value of the book at this juncture when plant biotechnology and molecular marker system are making rapid strides towards commercial applications. Depending upon the importance of the crop some of the chapters are plant-specific, while others deal more generally with the area of the subject.

Abiotic Stress Response in Plants – Physiological, Biochemical and Genetic Perspectives

Abiotic Stress Response in Plants - Physiological, Biochemical and Genetic Perspectives by Arun Shanker, Co-Editor: B. Venkateswarlu

Abiotic Stress Response in Plants – Physiological, Biochemical and Genetic Perspectives
by Arun Shanker, Co-Editor: B. Venkateswarlu
Plants, unlike animals, are sessile. This demands that adverse changes in their environment are quickly recognized, distinguished and responded to with suitable reactions. Drought, heat, cold and salinity are among the major abiotic stresses that adversely affect plant growth and productivity. In general, abiotic stress often causes a series of morphological, physiological, biochemical and molecular changes that unfavorably affect plant growth, development and productivity. Drought, salinity, extreme temperatures (cold and heat) and oxidative stress are often interrelated; these conditions singularly or in combination induce cellular damage.
To cope with abiotic stresses, of paramount significance is to understand plant responses to abiotic stresses that disturb the homeostatic equilibrium at cellular and molecular level in order to identify a common mechanism for multiple stress tolerance. This multi authored edited compilation attempts to put forth an all-inclusive biochemical and molecular picture in a systems approach wherein mechanism and adaptation aspects of abiotic stress are dealt with. The chief objective of the book hence is to deliver state of the art information for comprehending the effects of abiotic stress in plants at the cellular level.
