Genomics-Assisted Crop Improvement
This superb volume provides a critical assessment of genomics tools and approaches for crop breeding. Volume 1 presents the status and availability of genomic resources and platforms, and also devises strategies and approaches for effectively exploiting genomics research. Volume 2 goes into detail on a number of case studies of several important crop and plant species that summarize both the achievements and limitations of genomics research for crop improvement.

The Memory of Trees
Most Australians see their world through eucalypts. From towering forests to straggly woodlands, in city parks, by the coast and in the bush, these are the trees that inhabit our familiar landscapes and national psyche. Yet the resilience of our eucalypt ecosystems is being tested by logging and land clearing, disease and drought, fire and climate change. In many places they are a faded remnant of those known by past generations. How important is the memory of these trees? In search of answers, Viki Cramer takes us on a journey through the richest botanical corner of the continent, exploring forests of rugged jarrah and majestic karri, woodlands of enduring salmon gum and burnished-bark gimlet. Spending time with the people caring for these precious places, she interrogates the decisions of the past, takes a measure of the present and glimpses hope for the landscapes of tomorrow. The Memory of Trees will make you look anew at the trees and environments that sustain us and show the many ways that, together, we can ensure their future.
Le Temps, sa vie, son oeuvre...
Le temps qui passe aboutit, en général, à la mort. Toutefois avant l’issue fatale il entraîne un certain nombre d’effets. Qui n’a pas entendu parler de la maladie d’Alzheimer ? Qui ignore que la maturation des fruits constitue l’antichambre de leur fin de vie ? Après un tour d’horizon historique et philosophique concernant la notion de Temps, les conséquences de ce paramètre, sur les animaux d’abord et sur les plantes ensuite, sont analysées par l’auteur. L’idée de l’existence d’une horloge interne s’impose. Celle de l’immortalité végétale est discutée. Mais la mort ne constitue pas toujours la disparition de l’individu ; lorsqu’elle touche certaines cellules et même quelques structures anatomiques différenciées, elle peut être bénéfique. Ce processus appelé « mort cellulaire programmée » ou « apoptose » est abordé. Ces différentes démarches conduisent à distinguer vieillissement et sénescence.
Plant Epigenetics Coming of Age for Breeding Applications
Epigenetics and Breeding, Volume 88, the latest release in the Advances in Botanical Research series, brings together the experiences and critical information teachers, researchers and managers must consider from both scientific and legal points-of-view as they relate to biotechnology. New chapters in this updated volume include sections on Epigenetic Mechanisms in Plants, Epigenomic Diversity and Applications to Breeding, Epigenetics in Breeding, EpiRILs: Lessons from Arabidopsis, Transposable Elements as a Tool for Plant Improvement, Epigenome Editing, Epigenetics and Grafting, Sexual and Non-sexual reproduction, Epigenetics in Cereals, and more. - Encompasses various aspects of botanical research, including its historical background, current status, recent research outcomes and potential future developments - Written by highly competent authors from all continents - Provides data that is based on facts and written in a dispassionate and non-polemical tone
Épigénétique en écologie et évolution
La génétique et sa petite soeur mystérieuse, l’épigénétique, plongent leurs racines profondes dans l’histoire de la biologie. Aujourd’hui, l’épigénétique revêt une importance capitale, tant dans les sciences que dans les techniques du vivant depuis la biologie moléculaire, le diagnostic et le traitement des maladies, en passant par l’agriculture. Épigénétique en écologie et évolution retrace l’histoire du concept d’épigénétique en biologie et décrit les mécanismes moléculaires impliqués. Il examine les contributions de la discipline épigénétique émergente en écologie et évolution, tant chez les organismes animaux que végétaux, ainsi que sa représ...
