Book excerpt: "Professor Zhang Guangchu of Guangdong Forestry Research Institute has worked on bamboo hybridization for almost thirty years and has amassed a wide range of skills and experience. She has produced hybrid bamboos that are now being grown commercially in South China. INBAR recently invited her to distil her experiences and make them available to a wider audience and this manual is the result.

Muralidharan and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fortuitous synchronous flowering of six species of bamboo in the KFRI Bambusetum at Thrissur, India and vicinity during 2014 to 2017 offered the rare window of opportunity to study the phenomenon and exploit the benefits of hybridization. Clumps of Dendrocalamus asper, D. giganteus, P. stocksii, D. strictus and Ochlandra travancorica in the bambusetum and a natural population of Bambusa bambos flowered during the same time in the district. Floral biological features of the species such as anther dehiscence, pollen production, pollen viability and pollen germination were compared. Pollen viability varied from 35 % in P. stocksii to 83% in D. giganteus and germination from 22% in P. stocksii to 78% in D. asper. Hybridization was attempted through reciprocal crosses between the different species. Attempts to improve the anther dehiscence was carried out employing direct sunlight, silica gel, calcium chloride etc. Hurdles in cross pollination were overcome using procedures like use of germination media on the stigma, cut-style pollination, in ovulo fertilization and in vitro culture excised pistils and vitro pollination/fertilization in D. asper, D. giganteus and P. stocksii. Surface sterilization procedures without compromising the viability of the pollen and ovules were developed. Pollen stored in organic solvents survived upto 280 days at 4u00b0C. The precise nutritional and environmental conditions essential to maintain the female receptivity and seed set, time of excising the ovule was determined. Valuable information on pollen storage and in vitro conditions conducive to carrying out hybridization was generated that can facilitate future hybridization efforts.

This book was released on 2014-12-15 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plant-associated microbes are ubiquitous organisms living in a range of interactions with their host. Involving two organisms, research and applications of plant microbes are challenging and often require specific skills. This book guides the reader in the word of plant-associated fungi, giving both theoretical and practical insight on the potential of this interaction in biotechnology. Detailed instructions and step-by-step protocols are described for isolation, identification, localization and community analysis of fungi, studies on their bioactivity, molecular plant-fungal interactions, and development of fungi as tools for biotechnology.

Download or read book New World Warblers written by Jon Curson and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2010-06-30 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following the same format as other book in the series, this guide to North American wood warblers, the parulinae, looks at their distribution throughout the USA and into Central and South America. New World warblers are one of the most colourful, popular and enigmatic groups of North American birds. This is the first time comprehensive guide to the identification, ageing and sexing of all 116 species. Thirty-six colour plates show the major age, sex and racial variations for all species (many of which have never been fully illustrated before). They are accompanied by colour distribution maps and black-and-white drawings. Jon Curson's up-to-the-minute text is based on over ten years' field research in North, South and Central America coupled with meticulous museum work by both author and artists. The book contains a full text for each species, including wing-formulae drawings. Some of the species covered find their way to the UK and Europe. New World Warblers represents a significant step forward in our knowledge of one of the most beautiful and conspicuous groups of North American birds.
