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.

Olive Germplasm

The olive (Olea europaea) is increasingly recognized as a crop of great economic and health importance world-wide. Olive growing in Italy is very important, but there is still a high degree of confusion regarding the genetic identity of cultivars. This book is a source of recently accumulated information on olive trees and on olive oil industry. The objective of this book is to provide knowledge which is appropriate for students, scientists, both experienced and inexperienced horticulturists and, in general, for anyone wishing to acquire knowledge and experience of olive cultivation to increase productivity and improve product quality. The book is divided into two parts: I) the olive cultiva...

From Terrain to Brain

"Wine connects people and places, but also ways of making knowledge across and beyond natural and social sciences. Biochemistry and microbiology, fluid dynamics and plant pathology, human physiology and cognitive psychology, and virtually every other scientific discipline each brings its own lens to understanding what wine is, each useful for different purposes. Looking through one lens ultimately invokes others, so that they anastomose around wine as a social, cultural, and scientific phenomenon. Unfortunately, "the science of wine" is often presented as a set of facts about what wine is, from several limited disciplinary perspectives, as trivia to memorize. Instead, this popular wine science book approaches the many sciences of wine as a set of diverse tools for appreciating and enjoying more of what wine can be. Each chapter begins with a common wine concern-sugar, alcohol, glass, etc.-and makes a foray out across the many sciences of wine to synthesize ways of understanding it. Ultimately, in addition to expanding avenues for enjoyment, the book aims to locate scientific research in the wider social context of how wine is made and enjoyed"--

Grapevine is a highly valuable crop worldwide, both from a cultural as well as a commercial point of view. One of its major advantages is that it is well adapted to scarce water conditions. The main object of grapevine breeding is to develop varieties that are resistant to pathogens and at the same time well-adapted to a changing environment. Since

The New Harvest

African agriculture is currently at a crossroads, at which persistent food shortages are compounded by threats from climate change. But, as this book argues, Africa can feed itself in a generation and can help contribute to global food security. To achieve this Africa has to define agriculture as a force in economic growth by advancing scientific and technological research, investing in infrastructure, fostering higher technical training, and creating regional markets.
