Soil Processes and the Carbon Cycle describes soil processes and their effects on the global carbon cycle while relating soil properties to soil quality and potential and actual carbon reserves in the soil. In addition, this book deals with modeling the carbon cycle in soil, and with methods of soil carbon determinations. World soils contain about 1500 gigatons of organic carbon. This large carbon reserve can increase atmospheric concentrations of CO2 by soil misuse or ...

Host-Pathogen Interactions: Genetics, Immunology & Physiology
ISBN: 9781608762866 / Angielski / Twarda / 202 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The interactions between a host and parasite are one phenomena which can be observed at the genetic level. Specifically, in host parasite system there are evolutionary forces which specifically act at synonymous codon positions. In this book, it is demonstrated that host specific viral genomes can optimize codon usage to successfully parasitize their preferred host. Such mechanisms could well-explain the host specificity of some virus families and their specificity of disease transmission. In addition, the authors present some mathematical models of host-virus interaction that were developed...
