Plant Abiotic Stress
Over the past decade, our understanding of plant adaptation to environmental stress has grown considerably. This book focuses on stress caused by the inanimate components of the environment associated with climatic, edaphic and physiographic factors that substantially limit plant growth and survival. Categorically these are abiotic stresses, which include drought, salinity, non-optimal temperatures and poor soil nutrition. Another stress, herbicides, is covered in this book to highlight how plants are impacted by abiotic stress originating from anthropogenic sources. The book also addresses the high degree to which plant responses to quite diverse forms of environmental stress are interconnected, describing the ways in which the plant utilizes and integrates many common signals and subsequent pathways to cope with less favorable conditions. The book is directed at researchers and professionals in plant physiology, cell biology and molecular biology, in both the academic and industrial sectors.

It is also an indispensable reference for researchers in mass communication fields, political science, and other social and behavioral sciences.
From Marketing Mix to Relationship Marketing
The author of this paper believes that a paradigm shift is under way in marketing theory. For the past 40 years, marketing thought, research and practice has been dominated by the marketing mix paradigm, based on the four Ps of product, price, place and promotion. Now, however, it is challenged by relationship marketing, defined as a process of establishing, maintaining and enhancing relationships with customers and other partners, at a profit, so that the objectives of the parties involved are met through a mutual exchange and fulfilment of promises, and of trust between seller and customer. The author examines the characteristics of such relationships and discusses how relationship marketing has evolved from other contemporary marketing theories.

Fruit Quality and Its Biological Basis
Fruit technology draws on biology and engineering to maintain quality during storage, distribution, and marketing. This book focuses on the biological processes that determine appearance, texture, taste, nutritional value, and flavor of fleshy fruits. It also focuses on the ways by which these biological processes can be manipulated to maximize quality for the consumer. It discusses the advances in the understanding of these procedures at the molecular level and the mode of action and limitations of current technology for postharvest handling of fruits. A concluding chapter examines prospects for the genetic control of fruit development, composition, and quality.
