Plant Biotechnology and Plant Genetic Resources for Sustainability and Productivity
Plant Biotechnology And Plant Genetic Resources, which boasts a truly international list of contributors with a variety of expertise, thoroughly explores all the major contemporary concerns. It discusses the strategies for the best use of modern biotechnology and precious plant genetic resources to alleviate components associated with global constraints in hunger, environment and health. This book is a valuable resource for scientists and policy makers as the world faces unprecedented challenges in the sustainability and productivity of the global food and fibre system.
Plant Biotechnology 2002 and Beyond
The 10th IAPTC&B Congress, Plant Biotechnology 2002 and Beyond, was held June 23-28, 2002, at Disney's Coronado Springs Resort, in Orlando, Florida, USA. It was attended by 1,176 scientists from 54 countries. The best and brightest stars of international plant biotechnology headlined the scientific program. It included the opening address by the President of the IAPTC&B, 14 plenary lectures, and 111 keynote lectures and contributed papers presented in 17 symposia covering all aspects of plant biotechnology. More than 500 posters supplemented the formal program. The distinguished speakers described, discussed and debated not only the best of science that has been done or is being done, but al...
Nutrition and Diet in Health
Nutrition and diet play a crucial role in sustaining good health throughout human lives. Food provides us with essential nutrients involved in many physiological activities and biological processes in the body including growth and development, metabolism, immune function, and overall well-being. Nutrition and Diet in Health: Principles and Applications reviews and discusses the issues related to the roles of nutrition and diet in human health and diseases. The book contains two sections – one section features principles, the other, covers applications. Part I provides information on sustainable use of nutrition and diets in health and diseases; advanced biotechnological approaches to impro...
Intellectual Property Rights in Agricultural Biotechnology
During the past twenty-five years, biotechnology has revolutionized agricultural research. The enormous potential, together with a landmark decision by the US Supreme Court to allow the patenting of genetically-engineered organisms has encouraged private sector companies to invest in research programmes. This book (first edition in 1998) is now fully revised and updated, with five completely new chapters. It presents definitive information on intellectual property law in a simplified form.
Plant Viruses As Molecular Pathogens
Introductory papers address current principles and practices of plant virus taxonomy. The next section treats aspects of virus transmission and transport. E.g., Khan (National Botanical Research Institute, Lucknow, India) and Dijkstra, a plant virologist formerly at Wageningen Agricultural U. (the Netherlands), contribute papers on the characteristic features of virus transmission by nematodes, fungal vectors, and seeds. Sets of contributions then discuss the molecular biology of RNA and DNA viruses. Coverage of methods in molecular virology, such as novel applications of DNA polymerase (Science journal's 1989 molecule of the year), conclude the volume. Includes supporting illustrations and reference tables. Annotation copyrighted by Book News Inc., Portland, OR.
