        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.

        Heribert Prantl, geboren 1953, ist Mitglied der Chefredaktion der Süddeutschen Zeitung und leitet dort das Ressort Innenpolitik. Für seine Stellungnahmen zu gesellschaftspolitischen Themen wurde er vielfach ausgezeichnet, unter anderem mit dem Geschwister-Scholl- und dem Kurt-Tucholsky-Preis. Erhard Eppler war einer der einflussreichsten Programmatiker der deutschen Sozialdemokratie. Als Minister für wirtschaftliche Zusammenarbeit im Kabinett Willy Brandts begleitete er den politischen Aufbruch zu Beginn der siebziger Jahre. Auch nachdem er sich in den neunziger Jahren von seinen Ämtern zurückgezogen hatte, griff er publizistisch in aktuelle politische Debatten ein. Erhard Eppler wurde 1926 in Ulm geboren. Er studierte Deutsch, Englisch und Geschichte und promovierte im Jahr 1951. Bis 1961 arbeitete er als Lehrer, parallel dazu war er parteipolitisch aktiv: seit 1952 in der von Gustav Heinemann gegründeten Gesamtdeutschen Volkspartei, ab 1956 in der SPD, für die er 1961 in den Bundestag einzog. Kurt Georg Kiesinger berief ihn 1968 zum Minister für wirtschaftliche Zusammenarbeit, einen Posten, den er auch unter Willy Brandt und Helmut Schmidt bis 1974 innehatte. Von 1973 bis 1992 leitete Eppler die Grundwertekommission der SPD, von 1973 bis 1989 war er (mit einer Unterbrechung in den Jahren 1982-1984) Mitglied im Präsidium seiner Partei. Eppler engagierte sich nicht nur in der Parteipolitik, sondern auch in der Evangelischen Kirche in Deutschland, in den Jahren 1989-1991 war er Präsident des Kirchentags. Seit seinem Rückzug aus der offiziellen Politik widmete sich Eppler dem Schreiben. Als 1992 Kavalleriepferde beim Hornsignal erschien, verortete Siegfried Unseld den Autor Eppler in der Tradition von Böll, Grass und Johnson: »Eppler stellt sich als Aufgabe seines Buches, unsere Freiheit wie auch unsere Gebundenheit gegenüber der Sprache wieder bewußt zu machen, eine Sprache zu finden, die den Gefahren, die drohen, angemessen ist.« Erhard Eppler starb am 21. Oktober 2019 im Alter von 92 Jahren in seiner Wahlheimat Schwäbisch Hall.

        Medicinal and Aromatic Plants

        Utilization and Conservation Techniques

        by Gopal Shukla ,Bidhan Roy, Vineeta & Sumit Chakravarty

        Medicinal and aromatic plants (MAPs) are invaluable natural resources of use to human race, without which the survival of human/ animal race is incredible. There is an enormous diversity of plants which are put into medicinal, beauty care and culinary purposes. Cultivation of commercially important medicinal plants is in high demand as the global community is growing towards a green and herbal oriented approach. India as a country has thousands of years old traditional medicinal systems which rely solely on medicinal plants. There is a gradual loss of medicinal plants with the increasing demand of plant derived drugs. Majority of medicinal plants are still collected from the wild. This doesnt meet the demand and thereby pave ways to adulterants. The over extraction and ignorant activities cause biodiversity loss. Farm production of MAPs in these days is extremely vulnerable to underlying climate risk. Sustainable management of these resources requires urgent attention for environmental stability and improvement of livelihood. New income generating opportunities are opening up for rural populations and in particular for small-scale farmers as well as marginal farmers through MAPs cultivation. New generation are not well aware of the various uses of many plants to which it was put before. Thus there is an urgent need to spread the knowledge and conserve the wild populations of medicinal plant diversity in various forest areas of India. Considering the importance of the MAPs, an attempt was taken in this edited book to understand and highlight the role of MAPs in livelihood improvement and income generation through cultivation, conservation and utilisation. Most of the chapters in this book dealt with individual medicinal plants in detail. Two chapters have also been included on pests and diseases management of MAPs. Nowadays, IPR issues are more important. One chapter has been included on IPR issues on medicinal plants. A chapter also devoted on value addition of the medicinal plant products.

        Commercial Entomology

        by Anil Kumar, Nagendra Kumar & Hari Chand

        Commercial entomology is a specialized field of attraction under entomology. In spite of the fact that insect and their products are known since ages, much literature is not available on commercial entomology. Authors of the chapters of the book have profound knowledge of different aspects of biology and management of insects especially in their field of contribution. So, their inputs are valuable for the development of commercial entomology in India. Importance has been given to Apis spp., silk worm, lack insect etc. while planning the chapters. The chapters of the book start from the honey bees and their management by Dr. Suday Prasad. Production technology for bee products and pests of honeybees and bee poisoning has been explained by Dr. Hari Chand and Mr. Beer Bahadur Singh in the 2nd and 3rd chapter, respectively. These chapters describe different valuable bee hive products, processing, uses and their composition for promotion of beekeeping development. The chapters on sericulture, lac culture, biological control, insect pests of medical importance, insect pests of cattle and poultry etc. have also been included in this book.

        Milk of Non Bovine Mammals

        Chemistry and Health Benefits

        by Anamika Das, Tanmay Hazra & Rohit G Shindhav

        .Milk is an integral part of human diet from ancient times. It provides a significant amount of protein, micronutrients and vitamins, which are essential to alleviate and fight malnutrition. To the worlds total milk production, Cow milk contributes 82.7%, followed by milk from Buffaloes, Goats, Sheeps and Camels. Cow milk contributes almost majority of worlds total milk production. Apart from plenty of health benefits of cow milk, the adverse effects or devil side of cow milk have been observed for certain population in the world. These adverse effects have been categorized as symptoms ofLactose intolerance- a condition characterized by difficulty in digesting milk due to absence of particular enzyme Lactase. Milk allergy occurs due to adverse immune reaction due to presence of certain milk proteins and this is usually termed as milk allergy cow milk protein allergy (CMPA). Non-cow (goat, camel, donkey, yak, horse) milks are closely associated with the culinary cultures of many societies throughout the world. Non-Bovine milks draw great interest for researchers in terms of milk production, technology, chemistry, microbiology, safety, nutrition, and health aspects

        Intercropping System

        Theory and Practices

        by Sagar Maitra

        Intercropping system is an age-old cropping system where two or more crops coexist for a significant time of their growth period. In the present context of negative impacts on crop productivity and soil fertility, a system approach in cropping has become more relevant. The book Intercropping System is divided into nine chapters that deal with the theory and practices of the intercropping system including recent research evidence. The first two chapters describe the overview of the intercropping system and complexity as well as the competitive relationship among component crops. The third chapter narrates the management options in the intercropping systems, while the fourth chapter highlights the multifaceted benefits of an intercropping system. Chapter 5 tells the suitability for the adoption of the intercropping system in organic agriculture. The sixth chapter describes how an intercropping system can ensure agricultural sustainability and some of the sustainable development Goals (SDGs). Chapter 7 illustrates the practice of alley cropping, a form of agroforestry, in resource-poor conditions. Legumes are considered an automatic choice in the intercropping system and hence, in the eighth chapter, the benefits of the inclusion of legumes as components have been described. Finally, in the ninth chapter, the performance of important crops in the intercropping system has been highlighted.

        Advances in Crop Production and Climate Change

        by A.S. Yadav, Narendra Kumar, Sanjay Arora, D.S. Srivastava & Hemlata Pant

        In recent years India has made notable advances in the fisheries. Progresses made in refinements of vessels, new line materials and line-handling systems, preserving the catch, the availability of oceanographic-sensor equipments and the utilization of satellite technology to locate potential fishing grounds have greatly improved the fishing power of longline vessels. Post harvest technology of fish has evolved in the last one decade to a more energy-efficient, cost-effective, and quality upgrading technology. Since fresh fish can get spoiled very quickly, the development of technology for post-harvest preservation and methodology to convert fish to value added products have also become popular in recent times. Value addition helps in getting high price for the fishery products. There is a need to develop competent human resources in the field of post harvest management of fish and production of value added products from them. It is required to inculcate vocational and entrepreneurial skills in order to widen employment opportunities, particularly among rural youth and the disadvantaged sections of the society as well as to enable self employment.
