This book contains full descriptions of all the root-lesion or meadow nematodes, burrowing nematodes, rice root nematodes and false root-knot nematodes reported from everywhere in the world that were considered by Decraemer & Hunt (2006) to belong to the family Pratylenchidae, order Tylenchida. It also contains the subfamily Nacobboderinae belonging to the family Meloidogynidae. All these nematodes are obligate plant-parasitic nematodes, most of them showing a migratory, endoparasitic way of lif...
Genomics of Tropical Crop Plants
by Paul H Moore, Ray Ming, and Deborah P Delmer
There is a critical need for a book to assess the genomics of tropical plant species. Early genomics successes resulted in tremendous advances in high throughput technologies and data management that greatly reduced costs and increased rates of data accumulation. In addition, the early plant successes showed that, although Arabidopsis can be a reasonable model for dicots and rice a model for monocots, there is a real need for species-specific genomic information if it is to be used for crop impr...
Achieving sustainable cultivation of bananas (Burleigh Dodds Series in Agricultural Science, #40)
Bananas are the world's most popular fruit and, according to the FAO, the fourth most important crop in the developing world after rice, wheat and maize. This volume discusses ways of improving cultivation techniques to make production more sustainable. Part 1 reviews current yields, production trends and constraints. Part 2 surveys ways of improving cultivation practice whilst Part 3 discusses harvest and post-harvest operations. The final part of the book assesses ways of measuring and improvi...
