Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Indigenous Trees of the Hawaiian Islands It has long been the writer's desire to give to the public a volume on the native trees of Hawaii, giving popular as well as technical descriptions of the trees peculiar to Hawaiian soil. At first it was thought that plain popular descriptions would suffice, but it soon became evident that the technical part could not be dispensed with, and in order to make the look valuable for both the layman and the scientist, it was therefore included. The rather lengthy introduction seemed an advisable featured and necessary, as it gives practically for the first time a more or less detailed description of all the floral regions and their plant associations found in this island group, not being restricted to trees alone but embracing the whole plant covering. In the sequence of families Engler and Prantl's Naturliche Pflanzenfamilien System has been followed, beginning with the Cryptogams and ending with the Composite. Under each species a complete reference and synonomy is given, as far as was possible. Of course, as in all works of this nature, mistakes will undoubtedly be found, which will have to be overlooked on account of the insular position of the writer, as it was not always possible to consult original works, some of them old and out of print and therefore unobtainable. It will not be out of place here to acknowledge the kind assistance of Miss Mary A. Day, the Librarian of the Gray Herbarium, for the loan of books and copies of articles, etc. Following the reference is a technical description, usually enlarged and based on material in the College of Hawaii Herbarium; only in such instances as when the plant is very common or has not been collected by the writer, are descriptions of old authors quoted. As far as possible native names are given under most of the trees in italics, as well as any legendary or other facts of sufficient interest, together with habitat, plant association, etc. Of a number of trees of which nothing is known of a popular nature, the technical side is enlarged upon, especially in the family Rutaceae (genus I Pelea) and Campanulaceae (tribe Lobelioideae). The writer wishes here to acknowledge above all the kind assistance of Prof. Dr. Ignatz Urban of Berlin. Prof. Le Compte of Paris, Prof. Dr. A Zahlbruckner of Vienna and Profs. H. L. Robinson and M. L. Fernald of Harvard, in the loan of herbarium material, mainly types, for comparison, without which the authenticity of many determinations would have been doubtful; this refers mainly to the tribe Lobelioideae of the family Campanulaceae, one of the most intricate tribes found in this Islands.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ornamental Trees of Hawaii The nomenclature has been kept strictly in accordance with the laws laid down by the last Botanical Congress held at Vienna in 1905 and not according to horticultural dealers or gardeners, who simply apply a familiar name to a plant for the sole purpose of selling it more easily. 'this accounts for the many species of Kentia, while in reality none of the palms on the market as such have anything whatsoever in common with species of that rare genus. Nomenclature of such type belongs to commercial botany. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Provisional Check List of Some Common Native and Introduced Forest Plants in Hawaii Any mistakes are our own, and we recognize that this list leaves opportunities for refinement. For example, when one or more Hawaiian names are given to different Species, we have somewhat arbitrarily listed one of these as the preferred name and the others in parentheses. Would a different choice be better? Until such questions are settled, we hope this list will prove acceptable as interim attempt to clarify and standardize local usage.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Designed to inform and inspire the next generation of plant biotechnologists Plant Biotechnology and Genetics explores contemporary techniques and applications of plant biotechnology, illustrating the tremendous potential this technology has to change our world by improving the food supply.

Next, the text examines the critical issues of patents and intellectual property and then tackles the many controversies and consumer concerns over transgenic plants. The final chapter of the book provides an expert forecast of the future of plant biotechnology. Each chapter has been written by one or more leading practitioners in the field and then carefully edited to ensure thoroughness and consistency. The chapters are organized so that each one progressively builds upon the previous chapters.

The text's accompanying CD-ROM offers full-color figures that can be used in classroom presentations with other teaching aids available online. This text is recommended for junior- and senior-level courses in plant biotechnology or plant genetics and for courses devoted to special topics at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. It is also an ideal reference for practitioners.
