Reactive Oxygen Species in Plant Signaling (2009)



Reactive Oxygen Species in Plant Signaling
Publisher: Springer | Language: English | ISBN:3642003899 | 257 pages | Data: 2009 | PDF | 2 Mb



Description: Until recent years the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) was generally considered to be a harmful process and a generator of oxidative stress. But more recently this concept has been re-evaluated and the term "oxidative signaling" was coined (Foyer and Noctor, 2005). This means that ROS generation is also an important component of the signaling network of plants. Results obtained during the last decade have highlighted that ROS are key regulators of plant metabolism, morphology and development which are also used by plants to respond to environmental challenges. The role of ROS as signals for gene expression has been established, and ROS also modulate the activity of key signaling compounds such as MAP kinases. The volume of research into the roles of ROS in plants is currently growing and the purpose of this book is to present recent advances in this field. The constitutive chapters are arranged around four main topics:

- The generation of ROS and their network signaling, including the retrograde signaling from the chloroplast to the nucleus and the cross-talk with hormone signaling

-The signaling role of ROS produced in some sub-cellular compartments

-The role of ROS in plant growth, development, functioning and stress acclimation

-Their role in biotic and abiotic interactions

Secrets to Great Soil (Storey's Gardening Skills Illustrated)



Secrets to Great Soil (Storey's Gardening Skills Illustrated) By Elizabeth Stell
Publisher: Storey Publishing, LLC 1998-01-02 | 224 Pages | ISBN: 1580170080 | PDF | 34.6 MB

Create productive soil anywhere with step-by-step instructions for making compost and fertilizers.


The previous reviewers are correct, this is a great book. Ever wonder why some plants grow and others won't even though the nurseries tell you that they will grow? This book will answer all those questions. This book goes thru a very methodical and thorough approach to educating one on how to build great soil and maintain it for any plant; from ornamental plants to vegetable gardens to fruit trees to lawns; from rebuilding a lawn to remediating a lawn. The tool chapter was a little redundant for me but this book is helpful to all; from the rookie gardener to the most experienced gardener. Most helpful to me were things like soil testing, top dressing solutions and organic composting. The format of the book is well done. Diagrams, text, master gardener tips, tables and illustrations. The greatest knowledge to me was that no matter what soil problem you have, the best solution is organic composting. Organically composted topsoil provides the greatest flexibility in terms of getting anything to not just grow but thrive!

Photosynthesis in silico: Understanding Complexity from Molecules to Ecosystems (2009)



Photosynthesis in silico: Understanding Complexity from Molecules to Ecosystems
Publisher: Springer | Language: English | ISBN:1402092369 | 508 pages | Data: 2009 | PDF | 17 Mb



Description: Photosynthesis in silico: Understanding Complexity from Molecules to Ecosystems is a unique book that aims to show an integrated approach to the understanding of photosynthesis processes. In this volume - using mathematical modeling - processes are described from the biophysics of the interaction of light with pigment systems to the mutual interaction of individual plants and other organisms in canopies and large ecosystems, up to the global ecosystem issues. Chapters are written by 44 international authorities from 15 countries. Mathematics is a powerful tool for quantitative analysis. Properly programmed, contemporary computers are able to mimic complicated processes in living cells, leaves, canopies and ecosystems. These simulations - mathematical models - help us predict the photosynthetic responses of modeled systems under various combinations of environmental conditions, potentially occurring in nature, e.g., the responses of plant canopies to globally increasing temperature and atmospheric CO2 concentration. Tremendous analytical power is needed to understand nature's infinite complexity at every level.

Communication in Plants: Neuronal Aspects of Plant Life by Frantisek Baluska



Communication in Plants: Neuronal Aspects of Plant Life by Frantisek Baluska
Publisher: Springer | March 5, 2007 | ISBN: 3540284753 | Pages: 438 | PDF | 7.3 MB



Plant neurobiology is a newly emerging field of plant sciences. It covers signalling and communication at all levels of biological organization – from molecules up to ecological communities. In this book, plants are presented as intelligent and social organisms with complex forms of communication and information processing. Authors from diverse backgrounds such as molecular and cellular biology, electrophysiology, as well as ecology treat the most important aspects of plant communication, including the plant immune system, abilities of plants to recognize self, signal transduction, receptors, plant neurotransmitters and plant neurophysiology. Further, plants are able to recognize the identity of herbivores and organize the defence responses accordingly. The similarities in animal and plant neuronal/immune systems are discussed too. All these hidden aspects of plant life and behaviour will stimulate further intense investigations in order to understand the communicative plants in their whole complexity. Download link

Senescence Processes in Plants



Senescence Processes in Plants (Annual Plant Reviews, Vol 26)
Publisher: Wiley-Blackwell | ISBN: 1405139846 | edition 2007 | PDF | 352 pages | 2,69 mb

The scientific and economic significance of plant senescence means that much effort has been made to understand the processes involved and to devise means of manipulating them agriculturally. During the past few years there has been considerable progress in this regard, especially in the molecular, genetic and genomic aspects. Senescence has a tremendous impact on agriculture. For example, leaf senescence limits crop yield and biomass production, and contributes substantially to postharvest loss in vegetable and ornamental crops during transportation, storage and on shelves. In addition, proteins, antioxidants and other nutritional compounds are degraded during senescence. Senescing tissues also become more susceptible to pathogen infection, and some of the pathogens may produce toxins, rendering food unsafe. Mitotic senescence may also determine sizes of leaves, fruits and whole plants.
This volume summarizes recent progresses in the physiology, biochemistry, cell biology, molecular biology, genomics, proteomics, and biotechnology of plant senescence. Beginning with a chapter on senescence-related terminology and our current knowledge of mitotic senescence in plants (a less well-studied area), the book focuses on post-mitotic senescence, and includes chapters addressing the senescence of leaves, flowers and fruits. Later chapters examine the development of various new biotechnologies for manipulating the senescence processes of fruit and leaves, some of which are approaching commercialization. The book is directed at researchers and professionals in plant molecular genetics, physiology and biochemistry.

Genetics and Genomics of Soybean By Gary Stacey, Richard A. Jorgensen



Genetics and Genomics of Soybean By Gary Stacey, Richard A. Jorgensen
Publisher: Springer | 23-05-2008 | ISBN: 038772298X | 416 pages | 8.29 Mb




Format: 405p PDF


The Fabaceae (leguminosae) comprise the second largest family of flowering plants with 650 genera and 18000 species. The soybean is a member of the tribe Phaseoleae, the most economically important of the legume tribes. The soybean, Glycine max (L.) Merr. is the major source of vegetable oil and protein on earth. Soybean oil has garnered considerable recent attention due to its increased use for biodiesel production. The extensive genetic resources of soybean and the associated physiological tools available present a set of unique opportunities to study everything from seed development to the biology of polyploidization to a huge array of pathogenic and symbiotic plant-host interactions. The large plant size of soybean is an advantage for such studies, permitting the use of techniques not easy or possible with smaller plants. For these and additional reasons, soybean genomic research has seen major advances in recent years. Therefore, a book chronicling these advances and the potential for future discoveries would be timely. This is especially true given the very recent announcement that the Department of Energy, Joint Genome Institute will sequence the soybean genome. Mirror
