Molecular Biology: A Project Approach by Susan J. Karcher

Molecular Biology: A Project Approach by Susan J. Karcher
Publisher: Academic Press (November 29, 1995) | ISBN: 0123977207 | Pages: 280 | PDF | 12.50 MB

This course manual instructs students in recombinant DNA techniques and other essential molecular biology techniques in the context of projects. The project approach inspires and captivates students; it involves them in the scientific experience, providing continuity to laboratory bench time and an understanding of the principles underlying the techniques presented. Molecular Biology is a must for any department, operating under budgetary constraints that offers or plans to offer a course in molecular cloning.

Biocontrol-Based Integrated Management of Oilseed Rape Pests

Biocontrol-Based Integrated Management of Oilseed Rape Pests
Springer | 2010-05-25 | ISBN: 9048139821 | 500 pages | PDF | 6 MB

Oilseed rape is a major arable crop in both Europe and North America. It is attacked by unique complexes of insect pests still largely controlled through the application of chemical insecticides. Crop management systems for the future must combine sustainability with environmental acceptability to satisfy both social and economic demands. This book, in its 17 chapters each led by a world expert, reviews research progress towards developing integrated pest management systems for the crop that enhance conservation biocontrol. This approach is particularly timely because of the development in Europe of insecticide resistance in the pollen beetle, a major pest of the crop. The past decade has seen considerable progress in our knowledge of the parasitoids and predators that contribute to biocontrol, of their distribution patterns, and their behavioural ecology, both within and without the crop. There is potential for natural enemy conservation through modification of within-field crop husbandry practices, as well as, on the landscape scale, through habitat manipulation to encourage vegetational diversity. This book will prove invaluable as a text for researchers, university teachers, graduate scientists, extension workers and growers involved in integrated pest management.

Biology ( 4 Volumes )

Biology ( 4 Volumes )
Publisher: Gale | ISBN: 0028655524 (Vol1) | edition 2002 | PDF | 271 + 263 + 279 + 293 pages | 50,5 mb

Part of the Macmillan Science Library series, Biology serves students from middle school to the undergraduate level. It provides 432 signed entries on a broad range of topics pertaining to biology, including basic concepts (Antibody, Genetic code, Nervous systems, Wetlands); history of the science (Crick, Francis; History of medicine); related fields (Agronomist, Emergency medical technician); and issues (Environmental health, Genetic control and development) as well as topics of interest to young adults, such as smoking, birth control, alcohol, and STDs. Emphasis is on molecular genetics, human physiology, and biodiversity. The articles range in length from a few paragraphs to a few pages. They appear in alphabetical order, and each concludes with see also references as well as suggestions for further reading, including Web sites.

Helpful reference tools appear in the front matter of each volume, among them a geologic timescale, a metric conversion table, and diagrams of a typical plant and animal cell. Some 550 words appear in bold type in the text and are defined in the page margins as well as in a glossary. Each of the volumes contains a topic outline and index, and a cumulative index is found in volume 4.

Conservation Biology for All

Navjot S. Sodhi, Paul R. Ehrlich, "Conservation Biology for All"
Oxford University Press | 2010 | ISBN: 0199554234 | 400 pages | PDF | 246 MB

Conservation Biology for All provides cutting-edge but basic conservation science to a global readership. A series of authoritative chapters have been written by the top names in conservation biology with the principal aim of disseminating cutting-edge conservation knowledge as widely as possible. Important topics such as balancing conversion and human needs, climate change, conservation planning, designing and analyzing conservation research, ecosystem services, endangered species management, extinctions, fire, habitat loss, and invasive species are covered. Numerous textboxes describing additional relevant material or case studies are also included.

The global biodiversity crisis is now unstoppable; what can be saved in the developing world will require an educated constituency in both the developing and developed world. Habitat loss is particularly acute in developing countries, which is of special concern because it tends to be these locations where the greatest species diversity and richest centres of endemism are to be found. Sadly, developing world conservation scientists have found it difficult to access an authoritative textbook, which is particularly ironic since it is these countries where the potential benefits of knowledge application are greatest. There is now an urgent need to educate the next generation of scientists in developing countries, so that they are in a better position to protect their natural resources.

Genome Clustering: From Linguistic Models to Classification of Genetic Texts

Alexander Bolshoy, Zeev Volkovich, Valery Kirzhner, Zeev Barzily, "Genome Clustering: From Linguistic Models to Classification of Genetic Texts"
Springer | 2010 | ISBN: 364212951X | 206 pages | PDF | 3,6 MB

This book deals with the methods of text comparison which are based on different techniques of converting the text into a distribution on a certain finite support, be it a genetic text or a text of some other type. Such distribution is usually referred to as “spectrum”. The measure of dissimilarity of two texts is formally expressed as a certain “distance” between the spectra of these texts. Such definition implies that the similarity of the texts results from the similarity of the random processes generating the texts.

Integrative Plant Anatomy

William C. Dickison
Integrative Plant Anatomy
Academic Press | 2000 | ISBN: 0122151704 | 533 pgs | PDF | 133 Mb

“

I commend the author for his fresh and novel approach to the study of plant anatomy. Presently, there is no textbook available that interrelates plant anatomy with systematics, physiology, ecology, genetics, anthropology, and the other fields of study covered in the manuscript; this approach has merit and addresses a need as far as plant anatomy and its applications are concerned. - Terence W. Lucansky, University of Florida
