Akteur) in response to nitrogen fertilization and citric acid application written by Nunun Barunawati and published by Cuvillier Verlag. This book was released on 2012-11-02 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Die Mikronährstoffe Fe und Zn werden von Samen für die Entwicklung des Keimlings benötigt. Getreidekörner besitzen geringe Fe und Zn Gehalte und sind deshalb eine schlechte Quelle dieser Mikronährstoffe für die menschliche Ernährung.Um eine Anreicherung von Mikronährstoffen in Getreidekörnern zu erreichen, müssen jene aufgenommen, von der Wurzel zu Blättern oder Stängeln transloziert und von seneszenten Blättern oder Stängeln in die sich entwickelnden Körner retransloziert werden. Es ist bekannt, dass Stickstoffernährung eine wichtige Rolle bei der Retranslokation von Mikronährstoffen spielt, da die Anregung der Synthese von N-haltigen Fe Chelatoren wie Nikotianamin und Phytosiderophoren zu einer erleichterten Langstreckentranslokation dieser Metalle führen kann. Andererseits könnte eine N Düngung auch entgegengerichtet wirken, da dadurch Seneszenz verzögert wird und Mikronährstoffe in vegetativen Organen festgehalten werden. Bisher wurden die meisten Studien zu Mirkronährstoffretranslokation während der Blattseneszenz in hydroponischer Kultur oder in Topfexperimenten durchgeführt. Die hier vorliegende Arbeit untersuchte deshalb den Effekt unterschiedlicher N Düngungsformen auf Blattseneszenz und Mikronährstoffanreicherung in Weizenkörnern (Triticum aestivum cv. Akteur) unter Feldbedingungen in zwei aufeinanderfolgenden Jahren. Es wurde beobachtet, dass die Seneszenz des Fahnenblattes durch N Düngung verzögert war und zwar besonders dann, wenn N in Form von Nitrat oder Ammonium angeboten wurde, wohingegen Harnstoff weniger effektvoll war. In beiden Feldexperimenten führte die Zugabe von Ammonium nach der Blüte zu einem erhöhten Fe und Zn Gehalt in den Körnern. Dies lässt darauf schließen, dass diese Behandlung eine vielversprechende Strategie zur verbesserten Anreicherung dieser Mikronährstoffen in Weizenkörnern darstellt. Die Stickstoffversorgung führte auch zu erhöhten Nikotianamingehalten in Blättern und Blattexudaten, wohingegen die Phytosiderophorkonzentrationen weit weniger von den N Behandlungen beeinflusst waren. In einem Versuch die Fe und Zn Mobilisierung zu verbessern wurde Zitrat auf seneszierende Blätter von Freilandweizen gesprüht und die Mikronährstoffanreicherung in den Körnern gemessen. In N-gedüngten Pflanzen erhöhte die Zitratapplikation die Zitratexudation von seneszierenden Blättern nicht und die Fe und Zn Anreicherung in Körnern blieb unverändert. In ungedüngten Pflanzen hingegen erhöhte die Zitratapplikation die Zitratgehalte in den Exudaten seneszenter Blätter und führte zu signifikant erhöhten Fe Gehalten in den Körnern. In diesem Fall ist der positive Effekt der Zitratapplikation höchstwahrscheinlich auf eine verbesserte Fe Solubilisierung durch Zitrat in den Fahnenblättern zurück zu führen, da diese Behandlung keinen Effekt auf die Nikotianamin- und Phytosiderophorgehalte hatte. Die Ergebnisse dieser Arbeit zeigen, dass N Düngung die Fe und Zn Anreicherung von Weizenkörnern verbessern kann und zwar besonders dann, wenn die unterschiedlichen Effekte der N Düngerform berücksichtigt werden, während die Zitratapplikation zu keiner erhöhten Fe und Zn Anreicherung in den Körnern geführt hat.
Book Synopsis Climate Change and Food Security by : David B. Lobell
Download or read book Climate Change and Food Security written by David B. Lobell and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-12-21 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Roughly a billion people around the world continue to live in state of chronic hunger and food insecurity. Unfortunately, efforts to improve their livelihoods must now unfold in the context of a rapidly changing climate, in which warming temperatures and changing rainfall regimes could threaten the basic productivity of the agricultural systems on which most of the world’s poor directly depend. But whether climate change represents a minor impediment or an existential threat to development is an area of substantial controversy, with different conclusions wrought from different methodologies and based on different data. This book aims to resolve some of the controversy by exploring and comparing the different methodologies and data that scientists use to understand climate’s effects on food security. In explains the nature of the climate threat, the ways in which crops and farmers might respond, and the potential role for public and private investment to help agriculture adapt to a warmer world. This broader understanding should prove useful to both scientists charged with quantifying climate threats, and policy-makers responsible for crucial decisions about how to respond. The book is especially suitable as a companion to an interdisciplinary undergraduate or graduate level class.

Book Synopsis Plant Tissue Culture: An Introductory Text by : Sant Saran Bhojwani
Download or read book Plant Tissue Culture: An Introductory Text written by Sant Saran Bhojwani and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-20 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plant tissue culture (PTC) is basic to all plant biotechnologies and is an exciting area of basic and applied sciences with considerable scope for further research. PTC is also the best approach to demonstrate the totipotency of plant cells, and to exploit it for numerous practical applications. It offers technologies for crop improvement (Haploid and Triploid production, In Vitro Fertilization, Hybrid Embryo Rescue, Variant Selection), clonal propagation (Micropropagation), virus elimination (Shoot Tip Culture), germplasm conservation, production of industrial phytochemicals, and regeneration of plants from genetically manipulated cells by recombinant DNA technology (Genetic Engineering) or cell fusion (Somatic Hybridization and Cybridization). Considerable work is being done to understand the physiology and genetics of in vitro embryogenesis and organogenesis using model systems, especially Arabidopsis and carrot, which is likely to enhance the efficiency of in vitro regeneration protocols. All these aspects are covered extensively in the present book. Since the first book on Plant Tissue Culture by Prof. P.R. White in 1943, several volumes describing different aspects of PTC have been published. Most of these are compilation of invited articles by different experts or proceedings of conferences. More recently, a number of books describing the Methods and Protocols for one or more techniques of PTC have been published which should serve as useful laboratory manuals. The impetus for writing this book was to make available a complete and up-to-date text covering all basic and applied aspects of PTC for the students and early-career researchers of plant sciences and plant / agricultural biotechnology. The book comprises of nineteen chapters profusely illustrated with self-explanatory illustrations. Most of the chapters include well-tested protocols and relevant media compositions that should be helpful in conducting laboratory experiments. For those interested in further details, Suggested Further Reading is given at the end of each chapter, and a Subject and Plant Index is provided at the end of the book.

Book Synopsis Recent Trends in Mycological Research by : Ajar Nath Yadav
Download or read book Recent Trends in Mycological Research written by Ajar Nath Yadav and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-02-04 with total page 503 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fungi range from being microscopic, single-celled yeasts to multicellular and heterotrophic in nature. Fungal communities have been found in vast ranges of environmental conditions. They can be associated with plants epiphytically, endophytically, or rhizospherically. Extreme environments represent unique ecosystems that harbor novel biodiversity of fungal communities. Interest in the exploration of fungal diversity has been spurred by the fact that fungi perform numerous functions integral in sustaining the biosphere, ranging from nutrient cycling to environmental detoxification, which involves processes like augmentation, supplementation, and recycling of plant nutrients - a particularly important process in sustainable agriculture. Fungal communities from natural and extreme habitats help promote plant growth, enhance crop yield, and enhance soil fertility via direct or indirect plant growth promoting (PGP) mechanisms of solubilization of phosphorus, potassium, and zinc, production of ammonia, hydrogen cyanides, phytohormones, Fe-chelating compounds, extracellular hydrolytic enzymes, and bioactive secondary metabolites. These PGP fungi could be used as biofertilizers, bioinoculants, and biocontrol agents in place of chemical fertilizers and pesticides in eco-friendly manners for sustainable agriculture and environments. Along with agricultural applications, medically important fungi play a significant role for human health. Fungal communities are useful for sustainable environments as they are used for bioremediation which is the use of microorganisms' metabolism to degrade waste contaminants (sewage, domestic, and industrial effluents) into non-toxic or less toxic materials by natural biological processes. Fungi could be used as mycoremediation for the future of environmental sustainability. Fungi and fungal products have the biochemical and ecological capability to degrade environmental organic chemicals and to decrease the risk associated with metals, semi-metals, and noble metals either by chemical modification or by manipulating chemical bioavailability. The two volumes of Recent Trends in Mycological Research aim to provide an understanding of fungal communities from diverse environmental habitats and their potential applications in agriculture, medical, environments and industry. The books are useful to scientists, researchers, and students involved in microbiology, biotechnology, agriculture, molecular biology, environmental biology and related subjects.
