The eleventh volume of the illustrated lists of vascular plants of Central Asia (within the people's Republics of China and Mongolia) continues the description of flowering plants and covers families Amaranthaceae, Aizoaceae, Portulacaceae and Caryophyllaceae.
This book contains the treatment of one of the most important and the largest of the angiosperm families of Central Asian region-Leguminosae-with the exception of complex genera Astragalus and Oxytropis.
This book presents a taxonomic account of Central Asian families Liliaceae, Dioscoreaceae, Amaryllidaceae, Iridaceae, and Orchidaceae and all monocotyledonous plants.
This volume provides a taxonomic account of horsetails, club-mosses, conifers, joint-firs, and several small families of monocotyledons standing at the beginning of the Engler system, from Typhaceae to Butomaceae as well as a supplementary bibliographic list of works on the flora of Central Asia.
This book presents a taxonomic account of families of order Tubiflora, namely, Verbenaceae, Labiatae, Solanaceae, and Scrophulariceae, which contain several interesting endemic genera and species that are important for understanding the developmental history of Central Asian flora.
This represents the concluding volume of the comprehensive compilation on the taxonomy and chorology of the vascular plants of Siberia (Volumes 1 to 13).
This volume provides information about 306 species from 12 plant families of Siberia, such as Salicaceae, Corylaceae, Betulaceae, Fagaceae, Ulmaceae, Cannabaceae, Urticaceae, Santalaceae, Aristolochiaceae, Polygonaceae, Chenopodiaceae, and Amaranthaceae.
This book presents a compilation of information on the taxonomy, chorology, and composition of species and subspecies of the plants under various divisions of the family of Araceae and Orchidaceae found in Siberia.
This book presents a taxonomic account of the family of grasses (Poaceae)-one of the largest of Siberian flora-which comprises 72 genera and 440 species and subspecies.
This book pertains solely to the family Chenopodiaceae, which plays a leading role in the formation of the vegetal cover of the deserts of Central Asia and represents one of the most abundant constituents of its flora.
This book presents information on the taxonomy, chorology, and composition of species and subspecies of the plants under various divisions of the family of Lycopodiaceae and Hydrocharitaceae found in Siberia.
The Alphabetical Indexes are cumulative indices to all 30 volumes of the Flora of the USSR and together constitute the thirty-first and final volume of this monumental work.
With the underpinning role of forage legumes in the nitrogen economy and animal productivity from temperate grasslands certain to expand in the future, particularly in regions where their potential has not yet been realized, it is essential that the wealth of information currently available is widely disseminated.
This book looks at significant current grassland problems and issues, and provides an insight into grassland productivity in diverse areas of the world, with their various production systems.
The principle objective of this book is to describe a range of families of flowering plants in a sequence corresponding to current phylogenetic classification based on the most recent results of molecular systematics.
The twelfth volume of the illustrated lists of Plants of Central Asia (within the People's Republic of China and Mongolia) continues the description of flowering plants and covers the treatment of families Nymphaeaceae, Ceratophyllaceae, Ranunculaceae, Berberidaceae, Menispermaceae.
Eucalypts are used for the production of paper products, firewood, charcoal, potential feedstocks for bioenergy and biomaterials, as ornamentals and landscape trees, and in land rehabilitation.
Congolese logging camps are places where mud, rain, fuel smugglers, and village roadblocks slow down multinational timber firms; where workers wage wars against trees while evading company surveillance deep in the forest; where labor compounds trigger disturbing colonial memories; and where blunt racism, logger machismo, and homoerotic desires reproduce violence.
The papers in this volume were presented at the Symposium on Steroid Hormone Receptor Systems held October 18-20, 1978, at the Worcester Foundation for Experimental Biology, Shrewsbury, Mass.
In a convenient, single-source reference, this book examines plant growth substances and their relationship to a wide range of physiological processes, ranging from seed germination through the death of the plant.
I intend to fill, with this book, a need that has long been felt by students and professionals in many areas of agricultural, biological, natural, and environmental sciences-the need for a comprehensive reference book on many important aspects of trace elements in the "e;land"e; environment.
The prirnates that provide the central theme of these studies by David Chivers and his colleagues are the dominant large herbi- vores of the tropical evergreen rain forest.
