Plant Chromosomes
The past two decades have brought with them remarkable progress in plant chromosomal research. The chromosome structure has been clarified in great detail, enabling identification of gene sequences at the microscopic level, which has aided the analysis of biodiversity. Knowledge of chromosome structure has played a crucial role in the improvement of crop species and has far-reaching implications. The manipulation and engineering of chromosomes involves a panoply of novel methods, combining conventional and modern techniques of biotechnology. A working knowledge of such techniques is essential for today's students and researchers, and the plant system, because of totipotency, requires special treatment. This treatise covers all the latest methods involved in the study of evolution, biodiversity, chromosome manipulation and engineering.
Vegetables
Vegetables contains reviews in 12 chapters contributed by 31 authors from 10 countries. The impressive work that has been done on most of these crops is presented in this volume. Genome projects already initiated on vegetable crops, particularly on Solanaceae and Brassicaceae species, may ignite further interest in other vegetables as well.
Methods of Genome Analysis in Plants
This extensively illustrated book describes in detail the classical and molecular techniques of elucidating genomic and phylogenetic relationships in plants. The advent of novel techniques like genomic painting, chromosome microdissection, and microcloning has added a new level of sophistication to plant genome analysis and gene mapping. Each of the 20 chapters covers the nature, advantages, and limitations of a genome analysis technique. Each chapter has been written by one or more specialists, who have given an authoritative account of the subject. This invaluable sourcebook will be useful to professionals and graduate students interested in genome analysis, gene mapping, and organic evolution. The book will particularly benefit cytogeneticists, plant breeders, taxonomists, biosytematists, molecular biologists, and biotechnologists.
Molecular Marker Systems in Plant Breeding and Crop Improvement
Successful release of new and better crop varieties increasingly requires genomics and molecular biology. This volume presents basic information on plant molecular marker techniques from marker location up to gene cloning. The text includes a description of technical approaches in genome analysis such as comparison of marker systems, positional cloning, and array techniques in 19 crop plants. A special section focuses on converting this knowledge into general and specific breeding strategies, particularly in relation to biotic stress. Theory and practice of marker assisted selection for QTL, gene pyramiding and the future of MAS are summarized and discussed for maize, wheat, and soybean. Furthermore, approaches in silviculture on the examples of Fagus, Populus, Eucalyptus, Picea and Abies are presented. The volume ends with a comprehensive review of the patents relevant for using molecular markers and marker assisted selection.
Recombinant DNA Research
Documents relating to "NIH guidelines for research involving recombinant DNA molecules".
Chromosomes Today
Chromosomes Today volume 14 records the plenary proceedings of the 14th International Chromosome Conference, presenting an overview of the current concerns in plant, animal and human cytogenetics. This volume provides up-to-date information regarding relevant aspects on structure, function and evolution of chromosomes, meiosis, sex chromosomes, and cancer cytogenetics. It contains invited contributions from some of the world's leading experts in the field.
The Grafs of Arran Towers
After a skateboarding accident in his local car park, Arran Towers, young Ben Lewis discovers that the Car Park is inhabited by more than just the attendant (Higgs) and his dog (Tripod). There exists another incredible world of characters - the GRAFS! When he and Higgs discover a plan to destroy the Towers, the secretive and wonderful world of the GRAFS will be destroyed forever. They MUST escape, before it is too late and Ben and Higgs have little time to set them free. Will they succeed? Join Ben on his journey of discovery to find out if he can help them survive the explosive ending!

Plant Cytogenetics and Cytogenomics
This book provides an up-to-date account of the most widespread methods used by specialists in the field of plant cytogenetics and the emerging field of cytogenomics that will likely soon be adapted by more labs. From the classical basic karyological approaches to the most recent genomics-informed and computational methods, the volume explores genome size and ploidy level estimation, chromosome fixation, preparation, and manipulation, banding and staining techniques, in situ hybridization, as well as numerous methods that integrate cytogenetics with bioinformatics and computational genomics. Written for the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step and readily reproducible laboratory protocols, as well as tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Authoritative and practical, Plant Cytogenetics and Cytogenomics: Methods and Protocols serves as an ideal resource for plant scientists interested in molecular and evolutionary biology, breeding, systematics, and plant -omics in general.
