Recombinant Antibodies
The first part of this book combines basic information on antigens and antibodies with a review of technologies for both the development of recombinant antibodies and their application. The principles involved in producing recombinant antibodies from either pre-existing monoclonal antibodies or from phage display libraries are introduced with practical examples. Modern methods for the analysis of antibody binding properties are described in detail. Examples are given in the second part of this book for the application of recombinant antibody technology to antibody-mediated resistance to plant disease and immunomodulation of plant antigens. The potential of antibody-expressing plants as bioreactors for large-scale production and storage of recombinant antibodies is described and a future outlook given.
Plant Virus Emergence
This compilation of articles elaborates on plant virus diseases that are among the most recent epidemiological concerns. The chapters explore several paradigms in plant virus epidemiology, outbreaks, epidemics, and pandemics paralleling zoonotic viruses and that can be consequential to global food security. There is evidence that the local, regional, national, and global trade of agricultural products has aided the global dispersal of plant virus diseases. Expanding farmlands into pristine natural areas has created opportunities for viruses in native landscapes to invade crops, while the movement of food and food products disseminates viruses, creating epidemics or pandemics. Moreover, plant virus outbreaks not only directly impact food supply, but also incidentally affect human health.
Advances in Applied Microbiology
Published since 1959, Advances in Applied Microbiology continues to be one of the most widely read and authoritative review sources in microbiology. The series contains comprehensive reviews of the most current research in applied microbiology. Recent areas covered include bacterial diversity in the human gut, protozoan grazing of freshwater biofilms, metals in yeast fermentation processes and the interpretation of host-pathogen dialogue through microarrays. Eclectic volumes are supplemented by thematic volumes on various topics, including Archaea and sick building syndrome. Impact factor for 2011: 5.233. . - Contributions from leading authorities - Informs and updates on all the latest developments in the field
Potato and Sweetpotato in Africa
Sweetpotato and potato are expanding faster than any other food crops in sub-Saharan Africa. There is growing investment in research to address bottlenecks in value chains concerning these two crops, and growing interest from the private sector in investing in them. This book addresses five major themes on sweetpotato and potato: policies for germplasm exchange, food security and trade in Africa; seed systems; breeding and disease management; post-harvest management, processing technologies and marketing systems; nutritional value and changing behaviours.
Advances in Applied Microbiology
Annotation Published since 1959, 'Advances in Applied Microbiology' offers comprehensive reviews of the latest techniques and discoveries in this rapidly moving field.
Viruses and Virus Diseases of Poaceae (Gramineae)
Many well-known specialists have contributed to this book which presents for the first time an in-depth look at the viruses, their satellites and the retrotransposons infecting (or occuring in) one plant family: the Poaceae (Gramineae). After molecular and biological descriptions of the viruses to species level, virus diseases are presented by crop: barley, maize, rice, rye, sorghum, sugarcane, triticales, wheats, forage, ornamental and lawn. A detailed index of the viruses and taxonomic lists will help readers in the search for information.

Plant Virology Protocols
Following the considerable success of the first edition of Plant Virology Protocols, this exciting new edition covers the many new techniques that are now applied to the examination and understanding of plant viruses. Each section presents the most novel methods and step-by-step reproducible laboratory protocols to allow researchers more effective approaches to study plant viruses. This updated book will prove indispensable to laboratory investigators studying plant viruses.
