        Erkenne Deinen Wert & Du wirst nie wieder das Gefühl in Deinem Leben haben, dass Du zu kurz kommst. "IM LEBEN GIBT ES KEINE LANDKARTE, DIE DIR DEN WEG WEIST, KEIN SCHILD, DAS DIR AUSKUNFT GIBT. ES GIBT NUR DIE STIMME DEINES HERZENS, DIE DICH FÜHRT."   In meinem Buch "Jeder kann in einer erfüllten Partnerschaft leben. #einePortionLiebe" unterstütze ich meine Leser dabei, die Ursache Ihrer Themen zu identifizieren und diese loszulassen, so dass sie ihre Herzensstimme wieder hören. Es wird ein Entwicklungsprozess in Gang gesetzt. Mit jeden Schritt, den meine Leser hierbei wagen, finden sie zurück in die Wertschätzung ihres Lebens. Schritt für Schritt wachsen sie in die Erfüllung und Freude an ihrem Sein, so dass sie ihr wahres Potenzial, auf allen Lebensebenen wieder entdecken und ausleben.     Alles im Leben beginnt mit einer Entscheidung.   Meistens zeigen sich die Themen, an denen man wachsen darf, durch immer wiederkehrende Themen, die sich wie ein roter Faden durch sein Leben ziehen. Dies zeigt sich dann  u.a. darin, dass man anfängt, sich wertlos zu fühlen und sich hinter seinem äußeren Erfolg versteckt, ohne dabei innere Erfüllung zu finden.   Dahinter stecken Ursachen, die einem die Tür zu seinem Herzen verschließen. Ich nenne sie auch gerne innere Saboteure. Sie kreieren einem immer wieder die Situationen, von denen man in seinem Inneren überzeugt, ist wert zu sein, und einem die Bestätigung geben, dass man auch weiter so denkt. Denn man zieht immer das in sein Leben, was man aussendet. Nicht mehr und nicht weniger. Man kann beruflich alles haben und doch innerlich unzufrieden und nicht erfüllt sein, wenn man in sich selber nicht zugesteht, dass man auch Freude an seinem Erfolg haben darf.   Die gute Nachricht ist, dass man zu jeder Zeit aus dieser Spirale heraustreten kann, um  sich das Leben zu kreieren, dass einem Erfüllung und Freude in allen Lebensbereichen schenkt. Nur manchmal kommt man nicht alleine aus dieser Spirale heraus, und man fühlt sich wie ausgebremst. Denn durch mein Buch begleite ich meine Leser über ihre Grenze hinaus zum Kern der Ursache, so dass sie sich von ihrer Blockade befreien. Sie beginnen die Lebensfreude zurück in ihr Leben hinein zu lassen und die Möglichkeiten erkennen, um ein erfülltes Leben aus ihrem Herzen heraus zu führen.     Also hab den Mut & erkenne Deinen Wert, dass auch Du ein erfülltes Leben auf allen Ebenen zu führen kannst. Denn hier liegt das wahre Seelenglück verborgen.   Finde Deine persönliche Work-Life-Balance, die zu Deinem Leben passt und nicht zu dem der anderen.   Du wirst durch mein Buch erkennen:   - wie Du eine gemeinschaftliche Partnerschaft voller Liebe, Respekt & Toleranz aufbaust - welchen Einfluss die Entwicklung der heutigen 0-Fehler Gesellschaft auf die erlebte Partnerschaftsqualität hat. - wie du dich aus der Opferrolle in deinem Leben befreist. - warum es sich lohnt, an eine erfüllte Partnerschaft zu glauben. - wie Du Dich aus der Funktionspirale Deines Alltages befreien kannst. - wie Du Deinen Liebeskummer & Herzschmerz überwindest und in Deine innere Mitte zurück findest. - wie Du die Hindernisse in deiner Partnerschaft überwindest und diese nachhaltig mit Liebe füllest. - wie du Angst in Liebe umwandelst. - wie Du Dein Selbstbewusstsein stärkst- und vor allem wirst Du wieder lernen, Dich selber zu lieben. - wie wichtig es ist, seinen eigenen Wert zu kennen. - wie Du über Selbstliebe Deine gesamte Partnerschaft bzw. Situation, in der Du Dich gerade befindest, verändern kannst. - dass alles, was Du selber glaubst und wie Du über Dich denkst, Dir stets durch Dein Außen gezeigt wird. - dass Dir ein anderer immer nur mit so viel Liebe und Wertschätzung entgegengehen kann, wie Du selber bereit bist anzunehmen. Du bekommst nie mehr und auch nicht weniger. - dass nur, wenn Du Deine eigenen Grenzen wahrst, andere diese Grenzen einhalten können. - was Du wirklich in Deinem Leben möchtest.   ***Je liebevoller Du mit Dir selber umgehst, umso mehr werden es auch andere tun und Deinen Wert erkennen.***

        Molecular Variability of Fungal Pathogens

        by Edited by Paul Dennis Bridge, Yvonne Couteaudier, John Clarkson

        This volume contains a series of contributions from established European researchers which consider aspects of molecular variability in fungal pathogens. Chapters are derived from a workshop held in Evian, France, in September 1997, supported by the EU Concerted Action Air 3-CT94-2448. The volume is divided into three sections. The first includes contributions which consider and review the major mechanisms involved, the second details specific studies on variability in populations of different fungal pathogens, and the third includes contributions on methods for interpreting such variability. The workshop was intended to bring together methods and understanding from a wide range of fungal pathogens, and this is reflected in the volume where individual contributions include case studies and reviews of populations of fungi pathogenic on insects and nematodes as well as plant and human pathogens. The combination of mechanisms, characterisation and interpretation across a wide range of applied mycology makes this a significant general text for those working on molecular characterisation. The broad spectrum of topics provides a multidisciplinary reference source within mycology and the book will be suitable for postgraduate students and research scientists in applied mycology, including plant pathology, medical mycology and biological control.

        Gene-for-Gene Relationship in Plant-Parasite Interactions

        by Edited by Ian R Crute, Eric B Holub, Jeremy J Burdon

        Genetics has transformed plant pathology on two occasions: first when Mendelian genetics enabled the discovery that disease resistance was a heritable trait in plants, and secondly when Flor proposed the “gene-for-gene” hypothesis to explain his observations of plant-parasite interactions, based on his work on flax rust in North Dakota starting in the 1930s. Our knowledge of the genetics of disease resistance and host-pathogen coevolution is now entering a new phase as a result of the cloning of the first resistance genes. This book provides a broad review of recent developments in this important and expanding subject. Both agricultural and natural host-pathogen situations are addressed. While most of the book focuses on plant pathology, in the usual sense of the term embracing fungal, bacterial and viral pathogens, there is also consideration of parasitic plants and a chapter demonstrating lessons to be learnt from the mammalian immune system. Three overall themes are addressed: genetic analyses and utilization of resistance; population genetics; and cell biology and molecular genetics. Chapters are based on papers presented at the British Society for Plant Pathology Presidential meeting held in December 1995, but all have been revised and updated to mid-1996. Written by leading authorities from North America, Europe and Australia, the book represents an essential update for workers in plant genetics, breeding, biotechnology and pathology.

        Biology and Integrated Management of Turfgrass Diseases

        by Gary W. Beehag, Nathan R. Walker, Percy T.W. Wong, Jyri Kaapro

        Cultivated turfgrass is an assemblage of mown, perennial grasses or prostrate-growing forb plants and a suite of microbes all competing with each other in a common environment. This book approaches turfgrass diseases from an ecological perspective and explains with examples how wild plants and microbes have co-evolved. It addresses the identification, biology and integrated management of both common turfgrass diseases and newly emergent diseases. It includes the common and lesser-known turfgrass species, their surrounding environment and the range of beneficial and pathogenic microbes which in combination explain why disease occurs. For disease identification purposes, fungal diseases are arranged according to their predominantly cool season and warm season occurrence. Turfgrass bacterial and viral diseases, and plant parasitic nematodes are also covered. Written by a team of international authors, it combines technical expertise and practical experience. Essential for anyone involved in managing turfgrass, this book provides the know-how to identify the early warning signs of diseases, in order to manipulate the environment and minimise the damage.

        Plant Nematology

        by Roland N Perry, Maurice Moens, John T Jones

        Plant-parasitic nematodes are a major threat to crop production in all countries, and identification of nematodes and knowledge of their biology is of paramount importance. Providing a broad introduction to nematodes as plant parasites, this book begins by describing nematodes by genera, and then builds on this foundation to detail nematode biology and pest management, including resistance, and biological and chemical control. This 3rd edition is updated to address advances in our knowledge of plant-parasitic nematodes, particularly concerning the molecular aspects of host-parasite relationships, including the application of genomics to nematode biology. Changes in control and management strategies are also covered. The influence of climate change on plant-parasitic nematodes is addressed in a new chapter on ecology. Primarily aimed at students (MSc and PhD), this book is also invaluable for researchers and lecturers in nematology, plant pathology and parasitology, advisory and quarantine services, and crop protection scientists.

        Vegetable Seeds

        Production and Technology

        by Gregory E Welbaum

        Most food and fiber crops are produced from seed. This means that the world's population is dependent on annual seed production for its food supply. Vegetable seed production is much different and more challenging than production of grain crops. This book explains the biology and technology behind producing, maintaining, and enhancing the quality of vegetable seeds from breeding through to the marketed product. It begins with six chapters on a broad range of seed-related topics: the importance of seeds, reproductive biology of plants, genetic improvement strategies, quality assurance of seed production, post-harvest seed enhancement, and organic production. The remaining chapters cover seed production in eleven important vegetable families. Each chapter provides a description of the botany, types and cultivars, genetic improvement, pollination, soil fertility management, pest management, crop production, harvesting, post-harvest handling, and seed yields. The aim of this book is to educate how to produce high-quality vegetable seeds. Incorporating both current methodologies and recent research results, it is suitable for students, researchers, and professionals in the seed industry.

        The Role of Biotic Interactions

        by Anna Traveset, David M Richardson

        Despite many books on plant invasions, none has focused on the role of species interactions. This book is a comprehensive overview of how plant invasions are mediated by varied species interactions and how such invasions influence this important component of biodiversity which involves the interactions (the 'glue') among a community's species. Besides highlighting relevant findings, the book digs deeply into new methodologies to understand species interactions in plant invasions and how this can improve management of invaded communities. The book covers: - Main theories/hypotheses in plant invasion ecology that invoke species interactions - Plant invasions promoted by mutualistic interactions and release from enemies - Antagonistic interactions preventing or hindering plant invasions - Consequences of plant invasions on native species interactions and ecosystem functioning - The interaction network approach to understanding plant invasions - Importance of considering species interactions in managing plant invasions Future avenues of research are highlighted in a final chapter.

        RNAi for Plant Improvement and Protection

        by Bruno Mezzetti, Jeremy Sweet, Lorenzo Burgos

        RNA interference (RNAi) has the potential to make major contributions towards sustainable crop production and protection with minimal environmental impacts compared to other technologies. RNAi is being developed and exploited both within plants (i.e. host-induced gene silencing, HIGS) and/or as topical applications (e.g. spray-induced gene silencing, SIGS) for targeting pest and pathogen genes and for manipulating endogenous gene expression in plants. Chapters by international experts review current knowledge on RNAi, methods for developing RNAi systems in GM plants and applications for crop improvement, crop production and crop protection. Chapters examine both endogenous systems in GM plants and exogenous systems where interfering RNAs are applied to target plants, pests and pathogens. The biosafety of these different systems is examined and methods for risk assessment for food, feed and environmental safety are discussed. Finally, aspects of the regulation of technologies exploiting RNAi and the socio-economic impacts of RNAi technologies are discussed.

        Biotechnology and Plant Disease Management

        by Edited by Zamir K Punja, Solke De Boer, Helene I Sanfacon

        As agricultural production increases to meet the demands of a growing world population, so has the pace of biotechnology research to combat plant disease. Diseases can be caused by a variety of complex plant pathogens including fungi, bacteria, viruses and nematodes, and their management requires the use of techniques in transgenic technology, biochemistry and genetics. While texts exist on specific pathogens or management practices, a comprehensive review is needed of recent developments in modern techniques and the understanding of how pathogens cause disease. This collection of studies discusses the key approaches to managing each group of pathogens within the context of recent developments in biotechnology. Broad themes include microbe-plant interactions, molecular diagnostics of plant pathogens and enhancing the resistance of plants.

        Infectious and Parasitic Diseases of Livestock (2 volume set)

        by P Lefèvre, J Blancou, R Chermette, G Uilenberg

        Translated from the French original published by Lavoisier In this new English language edition all the chapters have been updated with new references and additional chapters written by authors in the UK, USA, Australia and Canada. In recent years infectious livestock diseases have swept across many countries, often with dramatic consequences for animal and public health. With climatic changes modifying the distribution of vector-borne diseases, emerging novel pathogens can spread rapidly in new areas, at the same time as resistance spreads in places where they are established. This calls for new approaches for the control of parasitic diseases. This book presents in detail over 130 viral, bacterial, fungal and parasitic diseases of large livestock species from all over the world, accompanied by very valuable and informative illustrations and photographs. Particular attention is also paid to the role of wildlife in their epidemiology, stressing the potential zoonotic characteristics of diseases where applicable and their effects on humans.

        The compounds making up the dry weight of seeds play a major role in determining the nutritional quality and ultimately the uses and economic value of the seed. The carbohydrate fraction can be divided into starch, fibre and soluble carbohydrates.The result of a major collaborative programme across Europe, this book covers the chemistry, nutritional value, physiology, processing and breeding/biotechnology of carbohydrates in grain legume seeds. There is currently no book available which covers the strategies for improving carbohydrates in grain legumes (peas, beans etc.) which takes into account both nutritional and agricultural requirements. This book fills that gap. Extensive section covering the topical subject of genetic manipulation techniquesInformation within the book is useful on a world wide scale
