A practical guide that covers both in situ and ex situ techniques for plant diversity conservation
The conservation and sustainable use of plant genetic resources is of increasing importance globally. Plant Conservation Genetics addresses this issue by providing an extensive overview of this emerging area of science, exploring various practical strategies and the latest technology for conservation of plant biodiversity. Leading specialists and experts discuss topics ranging from the science’s foundations through every aspect of plant conservation genetics. This informative text includes several ex situ (outside of natural habitat) and in situ (inside of natural habitat) techniques for plant conservation useful for researchers, educators, and students.
Plant Conservation Genetics first reviews the importance, opportunities, and numerous advantages of this type of conservation, then explores various effective ex situ (for specific species) and in situ (for certain species on up to full ecosystems and habitats) techniques for conservation. Essential detailed information is presented on collection strategies, botanic gardens, DNA banks, biodiversity management, and genetic resources in seedbanks. Each specialist reveals his or her personal experience of working in the field, allowing direct experience to illustrate and provide expert perspective on the key issues of plant conservation. The book is carefully referenced and includes tables and figures to enhance clarity of data.

Soft cover. Etat : New. Etat de la jaquette : New. 1st Edition. The Indian sub-continent possesses largest livestock population in the world and the animal rearing is one of the income generating viable business of rural people. They are getting income by way of milk, meat, wool, leather etc. However, the productivity of domesticated animals is poor due to complex factors which are varied. They are further compounded by clinical or sub-clinical parasitic diseases which inflict losses through mortality, morbidity, reduced feed conversion ratio, inefficiency of production and by way of costs incurred on treatment and control. This Hand Book of common Parasitic Diseases for Field Veterinarians has been written in simple language for the benefit of field veterinarians in particular to provide a ready reference to them about pathogenesis, clinical signs, diagnosis, treatment and control of important parasitic diseases of the livestock. Various clinical diagnostic techniques for diagnosis of parasitic diseases which do not require specialized equipments have also been described in detail so that they can be employed in routine clinical veterinary practice. This book apart from meeting the needs of field veterinarians will also serve as a useful source of information to undergraduate and postgraduate students of veterinary colleges.
