Genetics and Genomics of Rosaceae
Springer 2009; US$ 159.99The Rosaceae Family is represented by approximately 3,000 species of diverse plants, primarily confined to temperate climates. This book covers progress in genomic research among the Rosaceae. It provides summaries of genomics research and applications on a crop by crop basis. more...
Endosymbionts in Paramecium
Springer 2009; US$ 159.99Endosymbiosis is a primary force in eukaryotic cell evolution. In order to understand the molecular mechanisms involved in this mutualistic relationship, experiments to reproduce endosymbiosis are indispensable. The ciliate "Paramecium" is an ideal host for performing such studies. Topics presented in this volume are: the origins of algal... more...
Photosynthesis in silico
Springer 2009; US$ 299.99Shows an integrated approach to the understanding of photosynthesis processes. Using mathematical modeling, this title describes processes from the biophysics of the interaction of light with pigment systems to the mutual interaction of individual plants and other organisms in canopies and large ecosystems, up to the global ecosystem issues. more...
Weedy and Invasive Plant Genomics
John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 2009; US$ 232.00Weedy and Invasive Plant Genomics offers a comprehensive, up-to-date reference on genetic and genomics research in weedy and invasive plants. Forward-looking in its approach, the work also assesses the areas of future research necessary to defeat these agricultural pests. This research-based, scholarly work engenders a further understanding of weeds... more...
From Plant Traits to Vegetation Structure
Cambridge University Press 2009; US$ 53.00Explains how natural selection, combined with methods in statistical physics, can predict and explain the assembly of ecological communities. more...
Plant Resistance to Viruses
Wiley 2008; US$ 175.00Concern about the environmental consequences of the widespread use of pesticides has increased, and evidence of pesticide-resistant virus vectors have continued to emerge. This volume presents a timely survey of the mechanisms of plant resistance and examines current developments in breeding for resistance, with particular emphasis on advances in genetic... more...
Physiology and Behaviour of Plants
Wiley 2008; US$ 84.95Physiology and Behaviour of Plants looks at plants and how they sense and respond to their environment. It takes the traditional plant physiology book into a new dimension by demonstrating how the biochemical observations underlie the behaviour of the plant. In many ways the book parallels courses studied at university on animal physiology and... more...
