Download or read book Chemical Constituents of Bryophytes written by Yoshinori Asakawa and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-11-13 with total page 811 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For some 50 years, Professor Asakawa and his group have focused their research on the chemical constituents of bryophytes and have found that these plants contain large numbers of secondary metabolites, such as terpenoids, acetogenins, and aromatic compounds representative of many new skeletons, which exhibit interesting biological activities. Individual terpenoids, when found as constituents of both a bryophyte and a higher plant, tend to occur in different enantiomeric forms. Professor Asakawa has covered the literature on bryophytes in two earlier volumes of Progress in the Chemistry of Organic Natural Products, namely, Volumes 42 (1982) and 65 (1995). Since the publication of the latter volume, a great deal of new information has appeared on bryophytes. One example is that known sex pheromones of algae have been discovered in two liverworts, indicating that some members of the latter taxonomic group might originate from brown algae. From information provided in this volume, it is suggested that two orders of the Marchantiophyta should be combined.
Download or read book Contemporary Research on Bryophytes written by Afroz Alam and published by Bentham Science Publishers. This book was released on 2020-01-10 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This reference provides information about recent trends in bryology in parts of India, tropical rainforests and arctic regions. Bryophytes are the earliest land plants and quite fascinating in their overall diversity. All through its history, bryological study has contributed considerably to the field of plant sciences, for instance, the discovery of sex chromosomes in plants. The study of bryophytes is fundamental to our understanding of land plant evolution, and the latest progress in molecular phylogenetics and genomics have given researchers a clear depiction of land colonization of plants and subsequent terrestrial progression. Ecologically, the importance of bryophytes for the participation in biogeochemical cycles, in particular carbon cycle is now appreciated. Further, there has been an escalating interest in the conservation biology of bryophytes. The contributors have put forward holistic information regarding current research scenario of bryology in a range of environments to readers learning about research in applied bryology. The compilation of reviews presents reported findings related to various aspects of the subject, such as, conservation, diversity, tissue culture, bio-monitoring, computational bryology, molecular bryology, and species. Botanists and bryologists will receive updated information that will be valuable for their research work. The reader-friendly text is also suitable for beginners in applied plant science. Recent Advances in Botanical Science provides updated research and reviews on topics related to plant biology, genetics, taxonomy and ecology. The series is a useful resource for readers interested in applied plant science.

Download or read book A Natural History of Ferns written by Robbin C. Moran and published by Timber Press. This book was released on 2009-08-21 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Natural History of Ferns is an entertaining and informative look at why ferns and their relatives are unique among plants. Ferns live in habitats from the tropics to polar latitudes, and unlike seed plants, which endow each seed with the resources to help their offspring, ferns reproduce by minute spores. There are floating ferns, ferns that climb or live on trees, and ferns that are trees. There are poisonous ferns, iridescent ferns, and resurrection ferns that survive desert heat and drought. This book is only available through print on demand. All interior art is black and white.
Download or read book New Manual of Botany of the Central Rocky Mountains written by John M. Coulter and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-11 with total page 660 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from New Manual of Botany of the Central Rocky Mountains: Vascular Plants IN 1885 the Manual of the Botany of the Rocky Mountain Region was published. It was based upon general explorations of the region concerned, and was confessedly tentative. During the last twenty-four years, general explorations of the vascular flora have merged into more or less intensive studies, and the manual long ago became inadequate. It was the original purpose to revise it as frequently as new material justified, but the author's time and attention became absorbed in other kinds of botanical work, so that no revision has appeared. As the book continued to be in demand, it seemed necessary, in justice to its users, to bring it up to date. This work has been undertaken by Professor Aven Nelson of the University of Wyoming (laramie), whose great familiarity with the flora of the Rocky Mountain region suggested his fitness for the task.

Book excerpt: Analytical Chemistry–3 provides information pertinent to the development of analytical chemistry. This book discusses the significant role of analytical chemistry in the progress of the chemical industry. Organized into nine chapters, this book begins with an overview of the contribution of analytical chemistry in the development as well as in process control of the industrial chemistry. This text then presents a brief history concerning the development of analytical chemistry in Romania. Other chapters consider the general problem of utilizing gradients in chromatography. This book discusses as well the developments in the determination of some common anions and describes the separation of anions of the same species. The final chapter deals with the classification of enrichment methods according to the type of sample for which they are to be used. This book is a valuable resource for chemists, analytical chemists, and pharmaceutical chemists. Teachers, scientists, researchers, and specialists in Romanian school of chemistry will also find this book useful.

This work has been undertaken by Professor Aven Nelson of the University of Wyoming (Laramie), whose great familiarity with the flora of the Rocky Mountain region suggested his fitness for the task. Professor Nelson has completely rewritten the book, and in such a way that it is as far from being a compilation as so general a manual can be. He has checked up the descriptions by an examination of the plants and by his extensive field experience. Descriptions and keys have been tested repeatedly, and are believed to be workable. The manual is intended to represent current knowledge in reference to the flora for the benefit of the ordinary user of a manual. The professional taxonomist will not find in it all of the subdivisions of genera and species that he might wish, but it is thought that this will make it more serviceable to the general user, and that it presents an adequate account of the flora from the more conservative viewpoint. The sequence of families is that known as Engler's, which is in general use by botanists; and the nomenclature, so far as practicable, is that adopted by the Vienna Congress. Names following the descriptions, but without citation or parenthesis, are those of the old manual, which have been changed. Names with citation and parenthesis represent what are regarded as synonyms. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
