  • Pages : 681 pages

Download or read book Seeds written by Carol C. Baskin and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1998-06-11 with total page 681 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seeds: Ecology, Biogeography, and Evolution of Dormancy and Germination differs from all other books on seed germination. It is an all-encompassing volume that provides a working hypothesis of the ecological and environmental conditions under which various kinds of seed dormancy have developed. It also presents information on the seed germination of more than 3500 species of trees, shrubs, vines and herbaceous species, making this a valuable reference for anyone studying germination. This book delivers information on characteristics of each type of seed dormancy, how each type of dormancy is broken in nature, and what environmental conditions are required for germination after dormancy is broken. It explains how studies should be done to distinguish persistent from transient seed banks, and covers which species should be controlled, propagated, and conserved. Seeds gives the reader insight and guidelines for doing ecologically meaningful studies on the biogeography and evolution of seed dormancy and germination in order to better understand plant reproductive strategies, life history traits, adaptations to habitats, and physiological processes. Evolutionary/phylogenetic origins and relationships of various kinds of seed dormancy A world biogeographical perspective on seed dormancy and germination Ecophysiology of seeds with each type of dormancy Critical evaluation of methodology used in soil seed bank studies Germination ecology of plants with specialized habitat and life cycle types Genetic and maternal preconditioning effects on seed dormancy and germination Guidelines for doing ecologically-meaningful germination studies

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The colossal importance of various field crops to satisfy hunger and other requirement of human beings is well known. The roles of cereals and pulses on human nutrition deserves special emphasis for billions of human populations in the world. The present books brief accounts of various aspects of important cereal crops, sugarcane, various legumes, oil seed crops, and fiber yielding crops of the world in different chapters with illustrations. It deals origin and domestication, systematic positions, utilization, botanical description, vegetative and reproductive growth, physiology, mineral nutrition productivity and abiotic stress resistance of most of the crops and also discusses the mechanism of tolerance to drought and salinity. The book also deals with various aspects of fiber crops. In the last two chapters are discussed researches undertaken on salinity tolerance of few crops. Therefore, the book deals in brief the major aspects of most of the field crops in the world. Not a single book is available in the market dealing with so many aspects all together. The book can serve as a text book in economic botany, agriculture and serve the needs of researcher’s working on various crops with research advances obtained on these crops.

Book excerpt: This book presents a broad number of recent discoveries, advances and important results concerning sunflower (Helianthus annus) crops and its related fields, with emphasis on the detailed study of several diseases and pests that can affect sunflowers (production, water resources needed, economy impact) in different regions of the globe, including Russia, both North and South America, Africa, India and Europe. We are all well aware of the increasing importance, as well as the economic impact that these plants have reached in recent years, not only in the food industry but also in the western energy market, with the increasing use of sunflower oil as a natural energy resource for biodiesel and biofuel. Apart from the interesting recent advances, results and conclusions presented in every chapter, plenty of visual and graphical content comprised of tables, charts, graphs, pictures and high quality detailed photographs and images showing different issues and problems regarding sunflower crops are also included. The manuscript chapters have been authored by experts in the field and in addition all of them underwent a stringent peer review process by expert reviewers to assure a high final scientific quality.

Book A Protocol to Determine Seed Storage Behaviour

Download or read book A Protocol to Determine Seed Storage Behaviour written by T. D. Hong and published by Bioversity International. This book was released on 1996 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication provides an approach by which conservationists can determine whether or not long-term seed storage is feasible for a particular species, i.e. whether or not that species shows orthodox seed storage behaviour, and provides advice on the implementation of the protocol, examples of ways in which the results from seed storage studies could be misinterpreted due to confounding factors, as well as several alternative approaches for estimating seed storage behaviour prior to carryng out actual investigations with the seeds. In particular, the latter section introduces the concept of a multicriteria approach for estimating seed storage behaviour.
