Following the green revolution and transgenic crop development, another revolutionary progress has been experienced in plant breeding in the last decade with the application of marker-assisted selection (MAS), next-generation sequencing (NGS), and gene editing techniques together with omic technologies, including genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and phenomics. Thus, this book is structured into two sections: "Marker-Assisted Breeding" and "RNA-seq and Gene Editing in Plants," which aim to provide a reference for students, instructors, and scientists on recent innovative advances in plant-breeding programs to cultivate crops for tomorrow.
Unlock the secret to true and lasting change. We all spend a lot of energy trying to get the people in our lives to listen to us, and despite our best efforts, we often fail. But what if the secret to influencing others was to demonstrate acceptance? Enter validation — communication that one is mindful, understands, and empathizes with another person's experience, thereby accepting it as valid. As both a means and an end, validation has profound effects, from improving relationships and de-escalating conflicts to increasing our ability to generate self-compassion and help people change their behavior. In this groundbreaking book, clinical psychologist Caroline Fleck explains why validation is one of psychotherapy’s best-kept secrets while taking us step-by-step through eight skills we can use to communicate it. Full of “aha” moments and powerful takeaways, Validation reveals how the science of seeing and being seen is the key to inner and interpersonal transformation.

Vitamins are organic compounds essential to the organism and serve as vital nutrients in limited quantities. Organic chemical compounds are called vitamins when they are difficult for humans to produce in sufficient amounts and must be obtained from food. The term, therefore, depends on the circumstance and the organism. For example, ascorbic acid (vitamin C) is a vitamin for humans but not for most other animals, and biotin and vitamin D are needed in the human diet only under certain circumstances. Nutritional supplements are important to treat some health problems. It is known that vitamins are important in our bodies because they have different functions that help keep our bodies functioning correctly. They help us resist infections and maintain the health of our nerves, and many of them help our bodies obtain energy from food, and others help blood clot properly. This book is an addition to the scientific library because it contains modern information distributed in five chapters by researchers known for their competence and scientific experience.

"In Ottoman times, everyone in Turkey was identified by titles, nicknames, birthplace, and parentage. Then, in 1934, a new law was issued. Everyone had to take a surname. Why did one family choose this surname and another family take that surname? This book relates the circumstances in anecdotal form as remembered by the family itself." (back cover).
Mesut Ozil is a midfield magician, casting an elegant spell over opponents and conjuring passes through gaps lesser mortals can't even see. After an eventful sojourn among the Galacticos of Real Madrid he has savoured silverware at Arsenal, while in 2014 he lifted the World Cup with Germany. But his life and career have been a test of resilience. Growing up in Germany's Turkish community, he faced prejudice from those who claimed his dual identity would prevent him giving his all for the national team. Later came questions over a different type of commitment, the kind levelled against those, like Mesut Ozil, who excel in football's finer arts rather than relying simply on running and ruggedness. He has proved concerns on both these issues lack substance. In Gunning for Greatness, Mesut Ozil reveals the inside stories of his relationships with Jose Mourinho and Arsene Wenger, his quest to help the under-fire Frenchman restore Arsenal's pre-eminence - and how he silenced the sceptics by conquering the world.
