Defense Mechanisms of Woody Plants Against Fungi
ISBN: 9783662016442 / Angielski / Miękka / 458 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. For the past decade, it has been apparent to both of us that a reference text covering all aspects of tree defense mechanisms to fungi was missing, needed and long overdue. Such a book would provide a clear, comprehensive overview of how living roots, stems and leaves respond to fungal pathogens. The need for such a book became in creasingly clear to us from our conversations with each other, as well as from our interactions with students and colleagues who desired a sourcebook containing reviews of morphological, biochemical and physiological aspects of host-parasite interactions in trees....

A Genetic Approach to Plant Biochemistry
ISBN: 9783709174630 / Angielski / Miękka / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Biologists ask how the growth, development and behaviour of organisms happen, how these processes are co-ordinated and how they are regulated by the environment. Today the questions are phrased in terms of the genes involved, their structure and the control of their expression. Mutations (recognised by a change in phenotype) label genes and can be used to study gene structure, gene function and the organisation of the genome. This is "Genetics." Study of phenotypes down to the level of the enzymes and structural proteins coded for by genes is "Biochemistry." It is self evident that only by...

Thonner's Analytical Key to the Families of Flowering Plants
ISBN: 9789401098922 / Angielski / Miękka / 231 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. For the identification of a flowering plant the first step usually is to discover to which family it belongs. With some experience, the families commonly encountered in one's area of interest are soon known, but when dealing with specimens from other places, notably those from the vast and rich subtropics and tropics, there is much less certainty. The pertinent literature is often not readily available as it is often found only in expensive, rare or obscure books, or journals, present only in a few specialized institutes. Basically only a few keys to the families of flowering plants of the...

The Reticuloendothelial System in Health and Disease: Immunologic and Pathologic Aspects
ISBN: 9781468433029 / Angielski / Miękka / 476 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. An extraordinary development of the knowledge, concepts and biomedical applications has occurred during the past two decades in the biological sciences, including the Reticuloendothelial Sys- tem (RES). For example, it is now widely recognized that distinct classes of cells are involved in the recognition of "exogenous" invaders of the body such as microorganisms and other foreign an- tigens, as well as of "endogenous" parasites represented by trans- formed neoplastic cells and altered "self" antigens. Prominent among cell populations involved in such recognition of antigens and subsequent...

The meeting was a satellite symposium of the XXXth International Congress of Physiological Sciences which occurred in Vancouver, canada, at that time. 2 Adjustments in the cytoplasmic Ca + concentration of cells occur in response to a variety of external signals. These fluctuations are a cen- tral component of one mechanism by which cells adapt their activities to changes in the external environment and to the requirements of whole body 2 homeostatic mechanisms. It is now clear that redistribution...

Implementation of a Long-term Vegetation Monitoring Program at the Mississippi National River and Recreation Area
ISBN: 9781494439118 / Angielski / Miękka / 84 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The goals of long-term vegetation monitoring during the first sampling year at a given park focus on obtaining baseline data on the status of park forests. Here, the authors report on this effort at MISS. Specifically, they wanted to answer the following questions for key forest habitats: 1) What is the relationship between density and stem diameter for key tree species? 2) What is the basal area of both individual tree species and all species collectively? 3) What is the density of seedlings? 4) What is the percentage of shrub cover?

Size- And Age-Related Changes in Tree Structure and Function
ISBN: 9789400737693 / Angielski / Miękka / 514 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Millions of trees live and grow all around us, and we all recognize the vital role they play in the world's ecosystems. Publicity campaigns exhort us to plant yet more. Yet until recently comparatively little was known about the root causes of the physical changes that attend their growth. Since trees typically increase in size by three to four orders of magnitude in their journey to maturity, this gap in our knowledge has been a crucial issue to address. Here at last is a synthesis of the current state of our knowledge about both the causes and consequences of ontogenetic changes in key...
