Conceptualizing Plant-Based Nutrition
This book deliberates on the various aspects of plant-based nutrition. Plant-based nutrition has numerous potential health benefits as it is low on calories nevertheless high on nutrient density and satiety, and also nutrient supplementation makes them wholesome diets.Starting with the importance of biodiversity contributing to the nutrition, the book discusses the development or utilization of nutrient-dense crops/foods with their bioavailability properties and health effects. Further, it deals with the enrichment of micronutrients through bio-fortification, fortification, the role of food matrix, and nutrient bioavailability, including the role of plant-based milk alternatives. The linkage...
Achieving sustainable cultivation of tropical fruits
Highlights key innovations in citrus cultivation, from genetics to precision agriculture and integrated pest management (IPM). Covers advances in breeding and cultivation of a range of soft tropical fruits, including banana, lychee, papaya and pomegranate. Broad coverage of key stone tropical and subtropical fruits, including avocado, coconut, guava, jackfruit and mangoes.
Mutation, Randomness, and Evolution
The author draws on a detailed knowledge of mutational mechanisms to argue that the randomness doctrine is best understood, not as a fact-based conclusion, but as the premise of a neo-Darwinian research program focused on selection.
Weed Seed Biology
Knowledge of weed biology is essential for development of both economically and environmentally acceptable weed management systems. With this background only, the book on “Weed Seed Biology” has been prepared. This book is a documentation of botany and seed biology of 42 dryland, 32 gardenland and 21 wetland weed species. The book consists of three major parts namely Part I: Seed biology of dryland weeds, Part II: Seed biology of gardenland weeds and Part III: Seed biology of wetland weeds. Each chapter deals with origin and distribution, habitat and habit, reproductive biology, flowering, pollination and fruit set, propagation and seed dispersal, lifecycle, seed dormancy and germination, and seed storage and burial. Besides, the past work done on weed Seed Science and Technology is also compiled by reviewing many literatures. It’s effects on crop production, control measures and uses are also included in each chapter. The book on “Weed Seed biology” is highly useful to the students, teachers and scientists specializing in weed seed science.
Transitioning to Zero Hunger
In 2015, the United Nations decided to establish the goal of achieving “zero hunger” in the world by 2030 through “outcome targets” such as eliminating hunger and improving access to food, ending all forms of malnutrition, promoting sustainable and resilient agriculture, and maintaining genetic diversity in food production. As a result of this decision, strategies are under way in different countries around the world in the form of political, academic, development, and non-governmental organization projects and programs. Five years later, these strategies have certainly generated results that need to be documented and analyzed so as to answer the following questions: what are the pro...

Persistence Strategies of Weeds
An invaluable source of up-to-date information on all major aspects of weed persistence Weeds negatively impact crop yields, the quality of agricultural produce, the health of livestock and ecosystems, and various aspects of human life. Despite significant expenditures of time, money, and resources by agricultural producers, land managers, and the general public, weeds persist. Developing new methods for protecting crops and the environment requires a thorough understanding of the persistence mechanisms of weeds. In Persistence Strategies of Weeds, an international team of expert authors provide detailed information on weed seed biology, identify the vulnerabilities of different weeds, and a...
