1999014898London: Kluwer Academic Publishers 1999. Cloth/Laminated Boards. Like New/No d/j as Published. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Type: Book From the pre-historic era to modern times cereal grains have been the most important source of human nutrition and have helped sustain the increasing population and the development of human civilization. In order to meet the food needs of the 21st century food production must be doubled by the year 2025 and nearly tripled by 2050. Such enormous increases in food productivity cannot be brought about by relying entirely on conventional breeding methods especially on less land per capita with poor quality and quantity of water and under rapidly deteriorating environmental conditions. Complementing and supplementing the breeding of major food crops such as the cereals which together account for 66 per cent of the world food supply with molecular breeding and genetic manipulation may well provide a grace period of about 50 years in which to control population growth and achieve sustainable development. In this volume leading world experts on cereal biotechnology describe the production and commercialization of the first generation of transgenic cereals designed to substantially reduce or prevent the enormous losses to cereal productivity caused by competition with weeds and by various pests and pathogens which is an important first step in that direction. 402pp. Kluwer Academic Publishers hardcover
1998015194London: Kluwer Academic Publishers 1998. Cloth. Very Good/No d/j as Published. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Type: Book Diazotrophic bacteria convert atmospheric nitrogen to plant-useable form and this input of nitrogen through biological fixation is of great agronomic importance. The contributions presented in this volume relate to free-living nitrogen fixers and the diazotrophs associated with plants. Symbiotic association of Frankia with non-legumes and cyanobacterial associations are also discussed. Research topics covered in this volume include the biochemistry and genetics of diazotrophs recent developments in improvement of plant-microbe interactions and their molecular basis the use of molecular probes in taxonomy and ecology of diazotrophs and reports on field applications agronomic importance and improvement in methodologies for assessing their contribution to plants. This book provides valuable information not only for researchers working in the field of biological nitrogen fixation but also for biochemistry molecular biologists microbiologists and agronomists.360pp.N.B.Slight marking to base of spine and one inch adjacent front and rear boards where label removed.

Type: Book The Fifth International Workshop on Seeds was held at the University of Reading UK from 10 to 15 September 1995. Some 230 seed scientists from a wide range of disciplines botanists biochemists ecologists agriculturalists foresters and commercial seedsmen from 31 countries Europe the Americas and Asia participated in the workshop. A large number of oral and poster presentations was made during the workshop and we are pleased to publish so many of them in these Proceedings. The papers herein are listed by the sessions in which they were presented but as is often the case many papers cover a broader range of topics than the session titles imply.
