Creeping bentgrass is considered the premier turfgrass species grown on golf courses, and there is a growing demand for an understanding of its maintenance and management practices.
Discussing the latest processes involved in researching yield generation, Wheat: Ecology and Physiology of Yield Determination will help you design various types of crop production systems for maximum yield.
Bayesian Analysis of Capture-Recapture Data with Hidden Markov Models: Theory and Case Studies in R and NIMBLE introduces ecologists and statisticians to a powerful and unifying framework for analyzing capture-recapture data.
Plant Enzyme Systems and Their Biochemical and Environmental Interactions offers a comprehensive exploration of the pivotal role plant enzymes play in sustaining life, driving metabolic pathways, and enabling plants to thrive under both favourable and adverse conditions.
Plants are continuously exposed to different environmental stresses that negatively impact their physiology and morphology, resulting in production reduction.
This book provides a compelling insider's account of The North American Waterfowl Management Plan (NAWMP), a groundbreaking initiative that has transformed avian conservation across the continent.
This book examines carbon-negative farming systems addressing science, methods, and policy mechanisms for achieving net-negative greenhouse gas outcomes.
Considerable interest has developed in recent years in crucifers and particularly in their wild relatives, as they contain genetic material that may be utilized for further evolution of superior crop varieties through introgression and distant hybridization.
Research establishes that symbiotic association of microbes with medicinal and herbal plants enhance the growth and accumulation of bioactive materials, and that species of microbes including bacterial and fungal species play a key role.
Botany is the study of plants, and they provide an essential foundation for life on earth, the food we eat and the beauty of the natural environment botany as a result is considered to be an extremely important science!

In the course of evolution, a great variety of root systems have learned to overcome the many physical, biochemical and biological problems brought about by soil.
Molecular Methods of Plant Analysis Concept of the Series The powerful recombinant DNA technology and related developments have had an enormous impact on molecular biology.
Ex situ preservation of germplasm for higher plant species has been accom- plished using either seeds or clones, but storage of these under typical condi- tions does not provide the extreme longevities that are needed to minimize risk of loss.
This volume examines the interrelated fields of food security, energy security and sustainable agriculture as the key to a stable global agricultural platform and is arranged in six parts.
This Soil Biology volume examines our current understanding of the mechanisms involved in the beneficial effects transferred to plants by endophytes such as rhizobial, actinorhizal, arbuscular mycorrhizal symbionts and yeasts.
Desert truffles are found in every known desert, irrespective of the habitat - cool or hot, loamy or acidic, sandy or heavy soil - the only common condition seems to be a limited supply of water.
Endocytosis is a fundamental cellular process by means of which cells internalize extracellular and plasma membrane cargos for recycling or degradation.
Chemical reactions and interactions between molecules are commonly considered the basis of life, and thus the biochemical nature of cells and organisms is relatively well recognized.
In plant cells, the plasma membrane is a highly elaborated structure that functions as the point of exchange with adjoining cells, cell walls and the external environment.
In the last half century, because of the raising world population and because of the many environmental issues posed by the industrialization, the amount of arable land per person has declined from 0.
Development of transgenic crop plants, their utilization for improved agriculture, health, ecology and environment and their socio-political impacts are currently important fields in education, research and industries and also of interest to policy makers, social activists and regulatory and funding agencies.
Our perceptions and conceptions regarding the roles and importance of maize to ancient economies is largely a product of scientific research on the plant itself, developed for the most part out of botanical research, and its recent role as one of the most important economic staples in the world.
Bulbous plants produce some of the most striking natural oral displays, and our region is endowed with the greatest number and richest variety globally.
Covering an area of over 130 million km2 spanning the Mediterranean, equator and tropics, the African continent features a spectacular geographic diversity.
Studies of biotic interactions of algae that involve chemical defenses or signals are currently vibrant, active components of both marine ecological and phycological research.
Extensive grazing and browsing by domestic and wild herbivores shape the vegetation composition, structure and dynamics of many terrestrial ecosystems.
