Ecofriendly Insect Pest Management

The farmers in developing countries are now renewing interest I approaches such as biological control, biopesticides and cultural practices to control insect pests. However, these non-chemical methods are not popularised among farmers in developing countries. These eco-friendly methods will play an important role in pest management in future, since they will bring about sustainable development. A Systematic approach is required to develop and adapt the eco-friendly programmes for many crops and for today's production practices. This book deals with topics in the following areas: IPM General Aspects; Entomopathogens; Microbial Pesticides; Entomophages; Biological Control; Botanical Pesticides; Cultural Control Measures; Vector Control; Genetic Techniques; Attractants and Repellents.

Herbal Medical Products for Metabolic Diseases - New Integrated Pharmacological Approaches

Metabolic diseases such as type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), obesity, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and cancer are among the most prevalent health problems worldwide. These diseases are characterized by altered metabolism and impaired energy homeostasis, leading to the development of chronic diseases. Medicines derived from plants and fungi including herbal extracts and isolated compounds, have been used for centuries to treat various ailments and have recently gained renewed attention as potential therapeutics for metabolic diseases. Pharmacological approaches are essential for developing such preparations to treat these diseases. Computational approaches can generate early-stage hypotheses about potential targets and mechanisms and can be one basis for assessing the pharmacological activity of an extract or a metabolite. Understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying metabolic diseases and the potential benefits of herbal medicines (incl. herbal medical products) can provide valuable insights into new therapeutic targets and treatment options.

Wonders of the Earth as Solutions for Vibrant Health

Our body is a machine that we need to lubricate and maintain; otherwise, it can sustain problems without regular maintenance. It’s quite clear that the human body is one of nature’s greatest accomplishments. The simple things that we take for granted every day are simply part of the smooth operation of this worldwide wonder, while astonishing acts, equally physical and mental, are directly credited to the marvel of the human body. Whereas it can be damaged, the body’s resiliency, rejuvenation, and restoration powers are in themselves miracles. In doing extensive study and research relating to human tissues, it’s impossible not to feel the wonderment of the human body. It certainly fo...

Ethnobiology of Mountain Communities in Asia

Natural resources and associated biological diversity provide the basis of livelihood for human population, particularly in the rural areas and mountain regions across the globe. Asia is home to the world's highest mountain regions including the Himalayas, Karakorum and Hindukush. These regions are renowned around the globe because of their unique beauty, climate, and biocultural diversity. Because of geoclimatic conditions, the mountains of Asia are medicinal and food plant diversity hot spots. The indigenous communities residing in the valleys of these mountains have their own culture and traditions, and have a long history of interaction with the surrounding plant diversity. Local inhabit...

Omics of Climate Resilient Small Millets

This edited book covers all aspects of omics approaches used for the varietal improvement of millets in changing climatic conditions. Millets are the collection of small-grained cereal grasses, that are grown for human carbohydrate needs. They are among the oldest crops, mainly divided into two groups – Major and small millets based on seed size. Small millets are earlier considered orphan crops, but recently due to their nutritional values, they are getting importance in cultivation. This book explores the genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics, bioinformatics, and other omics tools that are being widely used to get a clear understanding of mechanistic approaches taken by pla...
