Plant Abiotic Stress Physiology
This two-volume set highlights the various innovative and emerging techniques and molecular applications that are currently being used in plant abiotic stress physiology. Volume 1: Responses and Adaptations focuses on the responses and adaptations of plants to stress factors at the cellular and molecular levels and offers a variety of advanced management strategies and technologies. Volume 2: Molecular Advancements introduces a range of state-of-the-art molecular advances for the mitigation of abiotic stress in plants. With contributions from specialists in the field, Volume 1 first discusses the physiology and defense mechanisms of plants and the various kinds of stress, such as from challe...
Plant Ecogenomics
This new volume offers a valuable introduction to plant ecology from a genomics point of view, presenting a thorough foundation and summary of modern approaches, methodologies, research goals, and evidence of plant ecology in the modern genomic era. The book also presents important updated information on the most recent knowledge of the different aspects of plant populations. The volume gives an overview of the approaches to unravelling the genetic basis underlying fundamental responses of plants to their natural environments, describing in detail the concepts, aims, and approaches of plant ecological genomics along with the genomic tools embraced by ecologists for mining various ecological problems. Recent advances and breakthroughs made in molecular markers along with their applications in plant ecogenomic studies are shared, and specific applications, techniques, and tools are described as well, such advanced molecular techniques, next-generation sequencing, eDNA metabarcoding, among others.
Plant Micronutrients
Plants require essential nutrients (macronutrients and micronutrients) for normal functioning. Sufficiency range is the levels of nutrients necessary to meet the plant’s needs for optimal growth. This range depends on individual plant species and the particular nutrient. Nutrient levels outside of a plant’s sufficiency range cause overall crop growth and health to decline, due either to deficiency or toxicity from over-accumulation. Apart from micronutrients (B, Cl, Mn, Fe, Zn, Cu and Mo), Aluminum (Al), cerium (Ce), cobalt (Co), iodine (I), lanthanum (La), sodium (Na), selenium (Se), silicon (Si), titanium (Ti), and vanadium (V) are emerging as novel biostimulants that may enhance crop ...
Medicinal and Aromatic Plants
Before the concept of history began, humans undoubtedly acquired life benefits by discovering medicinal and aromatic plants (MAPs) that were food and medicine. Today, a variety of available herbs and spices are used and enjoyed throughout the world and continue to promote good health. The international market is also quite welcoming for MAPs and essential oils. The increasing environment and nature conscious buyers encourage producers to produce high quality essential oils. These consumer choices lead to growing preference for organic and herbal based products in the world market. As the benefits of medicinal and aromatic plants are recognized, these plants will have a special role for human...
Next Generation Crop Improvement for Agricultural Sustainability and Food Security
This book is a comprehensive compilation of current knowledge on the integrated approaches and strategies of sustainable crop improvement. It encompasses a broad spectrum of subjects including the latest developments and understandings of diverse stress management techniques for sustainable crop enhancement, accelerated breeding, and genome editing. It also delves into the development of next-generation crop varieties through genomic selection to ensure food and nutritional security. It showcases biofortification as a solution to combat hidden hunger by increasing the iron, zinc, and vitamin content in staple crops and millets as resilient and nutritious crops, a key player in future food sy...
Report of the Special Rapporteur on the Promotion and Protection of the Right to Freedom of Opinion and Expression, Frank La Rue
In this report, Frank La Rue provides detailed summaries of his letters and appeals to government officials in 84 countries regarding instances of alleged violations of freedom of speech, freedom of the press, and other rights. The author also provides summaries of governments' responses, when they exist. The author's communications were sent from 1 January 2009 to 19 March 2010. Governments' replies were received from 16 May 2009 to 14 May 2010. Cases are organized by country.
