        Molecular Breeding in Wheat, Maize and Sorghum

        Strategies for Improving Abiotic Stress Tolerance and Yield

        by Mohammad Anwar Hossain, Mobashwer Alam, Saman Seneweera, Sujay Rakshit, Robert Henry

        The global population is projected to reach almost 10 billion by 2050, and food and feed production will need to increase by 70%. Wheat, maize and sorghum are three key cereals which provide nutrition for the majority of the world's population. Their production is affected by various abiotic stresses which cause significant yield losses. The effects of climate change also increase the frequency and severity of such abiotic stresses. Molecular breeding technologies offer real hope for improving crop yields. Although significant progress has been made over the last few years, there is still a need to bridge the large gap between yields in the most favorable and most stressful conditions. This book: - Provides a valuable resource for wheat, maize and sorghum scientists working on breeding and molecular biology, physiology and biotechnology. - Presents the latest in-depth research in the area of abiotic stress tolerance and yield improvements. - Contains the necessary information to allow plant breeders to apply this research to effectively breed new varieties of these crops. It provides a consolidated reference for plant breeders and crop scientists working on the challenges of enhanced crop productivity and climate change adaptability.

        by Saharil Hasrin Sanin

And within that ignored speck of fine dust on the floor, there is God."   This manuscript contains 13 short stories by Saharil Hasrin Sanin, which have won various literary awards and prove that he remains a powerful storyteller. From the tale of a smooth-tongued vendor to the love story of hundreds of stones at the bottom of Al-Aqsa, this book will take us on a journey to explore the depths of emotions: happiness and wounds.

      • The Architecture of Love

        by Ika Natassa

        Every person has at least one secret that will break your heart. For some, it might be their past. For some others, it might be their reasons. And for Raia and River in The Architecture of Love, it was both. Raia, an Indonesian bestselling author, could no longer write a single sentence after her muse, her husband, left her. In despair, she fled to New York, hoping that the city often sees as beacon of hope could be the place where she can rebuild herself as writer and as woman.   River, a talented architect, fled to New York for the noise. The chaos of the city was the only thing that would cover up the noise of the last three years that always haunted him. The voices echoing in his head calling him a murderer, the killer of his own wife.   A chance encounter at a New Year's Eve party led to an unusual friendship between them, as they stroll around the city every day, bonded by loneliness, evermore confined by their secrets, until their hearts start wanting for more only to find that the past could never let them go.   Through The Architecture of Love, a tale of two strangers and two broken souls in search for answers, Ika Natassa offers a genuine look into the urban society of Indonesia.
