 | Advances in Agronomy Product# 460548972 Selling for $165 "Volume 54 contains seven reviews covering key contemporary topics in the crop and soil sciences. The connections between agricultural practice and environmental impact are addressed in chapters on subsurface microbial ecology, herbicide-resistant field crops, and nitrification inhibitors. Also among this collection are reviews on the microbial reduction of iron, manganese, and other metals; acid tolerance of wheat; lentil breeding and production; and the use of apomixis in cultivar development. With this latest volume, Advances in Agronomy continues to be recognized as a prolific and first-rate reference by the scientific community. In 1993 Advances in Agronomy increased its publication frequency to three volumes per year, and will continue this trend as our breadth of agronomic inquiry and knowledge continues to grow. Key Features * Impact of agriculture on subsurface microbial ecology * Herbicide-resistant crops * Microbial reduction of iron, manganese, and other metals * Nitrification inhibitors * Apomixis in cultivar development" |
 | Advances in Botanical Research/1993 Product# 460684048 Selling for $171.95 "Advances in Botanical Research is a multi-volume publication bringing together reviews by recognized experts on subjects of importance to those involved in botanical research. The four essays in this volume reflect the very latest in botanical research with their broad scope of interest to plant scientists in many areas. The articles include a detailed examination of oligosaccarins, the role of plant hormones in root-to-shoot communications, second-hand choloplasts, and the gametophyte-sporophyte junction in land plants. * SPECIAL FEATURES: * Four reviews covering broad range of subject areas." |
 | Advances in Botanical Research Product# 460684049 Selling for $198 "Advances in Botanical Research is a multi-volume publication that brings together reviews by recognized experts on subjects of importance to those involved in botanical research. For more than thirty years, Advances in Botanical Research has earned a reputation for excellence in the field. For those working on plant pathology, Advances in Plant Pathology has also carved a niche in the plant sciences during its decade of publication. Academic Press has merged Advances in Plant Pathology into Advances in Botanical Research. The plant science community will find that the merger of these two serials will provide one comprehensive resource for the field. To ensure complete coverage, John Andrews and Inez Tommerup, the editors of Advances in Plant Pathology, have joined the editorial board of the new series, which will include equal coverage of plant pathology and botany in both thematic and mixed volumes. The first fewvolumes of the new series will be slanted toward botany or plant pathology; however, future eclectic volumes will be fully integrated. The resul" |
 | Plant Trichomes Product# 460684050 Selling for $187 "This volume is a collection of review articles by leading scientists involved in various aspects of work involving plant hairs, or 'trichomes.' The scope of the volume is broad, representing the fact that there is interest in these structures for researchers in diverse fields including plant anatomy, taxonomy, cell and molecular biology, biochemistry, and ecology." |
 | Introduction to Ecological Biochemistry Product# 460684253 Selling for $70.95 "Advanced level students and research workers alike will find much of value in this comprehensive text, written by an acknowledged expert on this fascinating subject." |
 | Pathophysiology of Endoparasitic Infection: Compared With Ectoparasitic Infestation and Microbial Infection Product# 460684422 Selling for $143.95 "The recognized importance of parasitic infection on a global basis, its impact on human health and welfare, and on animal health and productivity demand that much more be known about parasitism and its associated pathophysiology. This volume provides essential information for future research in this field." |
 | Advances in Agronomy Product# 460766941 Selling for $165 "Advances in Agronomy increased its publication frequency to three volumes per year in 1993, and will continue this trend as advances in the field dictate. Volume 53 contains four excellent reviews which cover an international spectrum of advances in the crop and soil sciences. One of the most important areas of research, sustainable agriculture, is treated in a comprehensive article in crop rotation in the twenty-first century. Aluminum in acid soils and the factors controlling its behavior are detailed in a second article. A third long review explains the role of nutrient management on water quality, which is now a critical issue for environmental conservation. The final chapter is a definitive treatise on interparticle force effects on physical behavior of soils, which has crucial influences on plant growth and yield. Key Features * Sustainable agriculture * Acid soils * Water quality and conservation * Soil physics" |
 | Effects of Resource Distribution on Animal Plant Interactions Product# 460767000 Selling for $230 "Aimed primarily at advanced graduate students and professional biologists, this book explores the degree to which animal*b1plant interactions are determined by plant and animal variability. Many of the patterns seen in natural communities appear to result from cascading effects up as well as down the trophic system. Variability among primary producers can influence animal and plant population quality and dynamics, community structure, and the evolution of animal*b1plant interations." |
 | Bordering on the Body; The Racial Matrix of Modern Fiction and Culture Product# 460768249 Selling for $53 "An original and striking study of a rich variety of modernisms, working with discernment and elegance at the 'compounded' intersection of race, sexualities, and gender." |
