Genome Editing: Current Technology Advances and Applications for Crop Improvement
ISBN: 9783031080715 / Angielski / Twarda / 345 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Over the last few decades, various techniques have been developed to alter the properties of plants and animals. While the targeted transfer of recombinant DNA into crop plants remains a valuable tool to achieve a desirable breeding outcome, integration of transgenes into the host genome has been random, which in part, leads to reduced acceptance of GMOs by the general population in some parts of the world. Likewise, methods of induced mutagenesis, such as TILLING, have the disadvantage that many mutations are induced per plant, which has to be removed again by expensive backcrossing....

Performing Farmscapes
ISBN: 9783030824365 / Angielski / Miękka / 305 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book argues that the performance-based work in the featured case studies contributes to the construction of food democracy where the public takes back decision-making in shaping the food system. It explores how contemporary artists translate scientific research about local and global agricultural issues into life stories that inform and engage their audiences and, in so doing, transform passive foodconsumersinto proactive foodcitizens. The pairing of performing and farmscapes (complex webs of farmlands and storylines) enables artists to use embodied practices to encourage audiences to...

Garden Plants Taxonomy: Volume 2: Angiosperms (Eudicots)
ISBN: 9783031115646 / Angielski / Twarda / 1192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Horticulture has remained far behind in understanding of botanical principles. Recent phylogenetic (DNA-based) reorganization of higher plants has revolutionized taxonomic treatments of all biological entities, even when morphology does not completely agree with their organization. This book is an example of applying principals of botanical phylogenetic taxonomy to assemble genera, species, and cultivars of 200 vascular plant families of ferns, gymnosperms, and angiosperms that are cultivated for enhancement of human living space; homes, gardens, and parks. The emphases are on cultivated...

Becoming A Young Farmer: Young People’s Pathways Into Farming: Canada, China, India and Indonesia
ISBN: 9783031152320 / Angielski / Twarda Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The book is based on the multi-country collaborative research project Becoming a Young Farmer: Young People’s Pathways into Farming in Four Countries (2017-2021). The four countries are: Canada, China, India, and Indonesia. It responds directly and concretely to concerns about the generational sustainability of smallholder farming worldwide– reflected in the current UN Decade of Family Farming. Most current research and literature center on why young people leave farming. The book draws on research that instead asks: “Given the constraints they face, how do (some) young people continue...
