Respuestas acerca del maíz
El maíz es más antiguo que las primeras civilizaciones de Mesoamérica y su capacidad para resistir, coexistir y adaptarse a la llegada de otras plantas y formas de producción fue creación de todos los pueblos originarios y continúa como fundamento de la alimentación y de las culturas que integran la nación mexicana. Hay aquí 110 preguntas y respuestas surgidas de un sector preocupado por retomar la causa del maíz, su nobleza como alimento y las virtudes culturales con las que se ha desarrollado.
Plant Molecular Biology
Presented here is an analysis of plant development and plant metabolism using the tools of genetics and molecular biology, such as mutant analysis, mutation tagging, mapping using polymorphic characters and basic molecular biology techniques. Studies with a range of model genetic organisms, most notably maize and Arabidopsis, are included. The reader gains a comprehensive view of the subject which is more and more of both scientific and industrial interest. The value of basic research in plants is highlighted and examples where basic studies have led to applications in agricultural biotechnology are given.
Taking Sides Environmental Issues
[This] is a debate-style reader designed to introduce students to controversies in environmental policy and science. The readings, which represent the arguments of leading environmentalists, scientists, and policymakers, reflect a variety of viewpoints and have been selected for their liveliness and substance and because of their value in a debate framework. For each issue, the editors provide a concise introduction and postscript summary. The introduction sets the stage for the debate as it is argued in the "yes" and "no" readings, and the postscript briefly reviews the opposing views and suggests additional readings on the controversial issue under discussion.-Back cover.
Molecular Biology
The Biochemistry of Plants, Volume 15: Molecular Biology presents information pertinent to gene expression, cytoskeletal proteins, and hydroxyproline-rich glycoprotein. This book discusses the specific gene systems and examines the regulatory regions within the genes. Organized into 17 chapters, this volume starts with an overview of the important mechanism for regulating gene expression, which is significant in the selective turnover of gene products. This book then proceeds with a discussion of the concept of protein degradation and the extracellular carriers of genetic information. Other chapters review the viral and plasmid systems, which are relevant to plants. This text discusses as well the phenotypic changes in plants, including plant genetic tumor and habituated plant tissues that exhibit hormone autotrophic growth. The final chapter examines the importance of genetic manipulation at the cellular level via protoplast fusion, cell selection, and transformation. Biologists, biochemists, enzymologists, biophysicists, and plant scientists will find this book extremely useful.
Resilient Crops for Water Limited Environments
Drought, arguably the greatest threat to food production worldwide, was the focal point of a high-level, weeklong workshop supported by The Rockefeller Foundation and CIMMYT, held in May 2004 in Cuernavaca, Mexico.

Environmental Issues
This Revised edition of Taking Sides: Environmental Issues represents the arguments of leading environmentalists, scientists, and policymakers. The issues reflect a variety of viewpoints and are staged as "pro" and "con" debates. Issues are organized around four core areas: general philosophical and political issues, the environment and technology, disposing of wastes, and the environment and the future.
