Plant Responses to Abiotic Stress
ISBN: 9783540200376 / Angielski / Twarda / 302 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) Environmental stresses represent the most limiting factors for agricultural productivity. Apart from biotic stress caused by plant pathogens, there are a number of abiotic stresses such as extremes in temperature, drought, salinity, heavy metals and radiation which all have detrimental effects on plant growth and yield. However, certain plant species and ecotypes have developed various mechanisms to adapt to such stress conditions. Recent advances in the understanding of these abiotic stress responses provided the impetus for compiling up-to-date reviews discussing all relevant topics in...

The African Husbandman
ISBN: 9783825830878 / Angielski / Miękka / 568 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) Upon its initial publication in 1965, The African Husbandman helped a generation of scholars and officials appreciate that Africans' agricultural practices were both more complex and more malleable than was often thought. Allan's work also pioneered research methods that wedded ethnographic and ecological fieldwork in ways that demonstrated the inextricable links between social arrangements, environmental conditions, and land use patterns. If certain facets of Allan's analysis have now come under scrutiny, such as his concept of carrying capacity and his belief in the positive consequences of...
