Root and Tuber Crops

It is important to include Tuber and Root Crops in the Handbook of Plant Breeding. They include starchy staple crops that are of increasing importance for global food security and relief of poverty, important millennium goals for the United Nations. Indeed, 2008 was the UN International Year of the Potato in recognition of this role of the potato as the world’s third most important food crop after wheat and rice. The other major staples are cassava, sweetpotato and yam. Together they occupy about 50 million hectares, with production at 640 million metric tons, of which 70% is in developing countries. In total there are more than 30 species of Root and Tuber Crops grown in the world today. ...

Compendium of Crop Genome Designing for Nutraceuticals

The crop plants cater not only to our basic F5 (food, feed, fiber, fuel, and furniture) needs but also provide a number of nutraceuticals with potential nutritional, safety and therapeutic properties. Many crop plants provide an array of minerals, vitamins, and antioxidant-rich bioactive phytochemicals. Increasing incidences of chronic diseases such as cancer, diabetes and HIV, and malnutrition necessitate global attention to health and nutrition security with equal emphasis to food security. This compendium compiles results of researches on biochemical, physiological and genetic mechanisms underlying biosynthesis of the health and nutrition related nutraceuticals. It also explores the preci...

Evaluación neurológica del recién nacido

Este libro trata acerca de la evaluación neurológica del neonato, entendida esta como una evaluación funcional que permite conocer la competencia neurológica, así como establecer la integridad y madurez del sistema nervioso del recién nacido menor de 44 semanas postmenstruales. En el momento actual, la disponibilidad de ultrasonografía en los Servicios de Neonatología y la generalización de estudios de resonancia magnética en los pacientes neonatales, han facilitado diagnósticos precisos que eran impensables hace años. Sin embargo, este progreso tecnológico ha podido generar, en ocasiones, la apreciación de que la aproximación neurológica puede ser restringida a los estudios ...
