Download or read book Plant Breeding written by H.K. Jain and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 813 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Indian Society of Genetics and Plant Breeding was established in 1941 in recognition of the growing contribution of improved crop varieties to the country's agriculture. Scientific plant breeding had started inIndia soon after the rediscovery of Mendel's laws of heredity. The Indian Agricultural Research Institute set up in 1905 and a number of Agricultural Colleges in different parts of the country carried out some of the earliest work mostly inthe form of pure-line selections. In subsequent years, hybridization programmes in crops like wheat, rice, oilseeds, grain legumes, sugarcane and cotton yielded a large number of improved cultivars with significantly higher yields. A turning point came in the 1960s with the development of hybrids in several crops including inter-specific hybrids in cotton. And when new germplasm with dwarfing genes became available in wheat and rice from CIMMYT and IRRI, respectively,Indian plant breeders quickly incorporated these genes into the genetic background of the country's widely grown varieties with excellent grain quality and other desirable traits. This was to mark the beginning of modem agriculture in India as more and more varieties were developed, characterized by a high harvest index and response to modem farm inputs like the inorganic fertilizers . India's green revolution which has led to major surpluses offood grains and othercommodities like sugar and cotton has been made possible by the work of one of the largest groups of plant breeders working in a coordinated network.
Download or read book Chromosomes Today written by Ettore Olmo and published by Birkhäuser. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chromosomes Today, Volume 13 includes the plenary lectures presented at the 13th International Chromosome Conference, covering the most recent advances in the studies on chromosomes. The contributions in this volume were presented by some of the world's leaders in cytogenetic and molecular research and outline the present status of knowledge on the composition, structure, function and evolution of chromosomes, including, among others, the advancement of the human genome project. The use of cytogenetic studies has greatly increased in the last few years, resulting in a progressive improvement in the available methods that has consequently allowed a more detailed analysis of the molecular organization of eukaryotic chromosomes and a precise in situ localisation of specific gene sequences. This volume of Chromosomes Today provides up-to-date information regarding the topics at the forefront of chromosome research: genetic regulation, imprinting, DNA duplication, meiotic pairing, and the regulation of the...
Download or read book Tangled Routes written by Deborah Barndt and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2008 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Where does our food come from? Whose hands have planted, cultivated, picked, packed, processed, transported, scanned, sold, sliced, and cooked it? What production practices have transformed it from seed to fruit, from fresh to processed form? Who decides what is grown and how? What are the effects of those decisions on our health and the health of the planet? Tangled Routes tackles these fascinating questions and demystifies globalization by tracing the long journey of a corporate tomato from a Mexican field to a Canadian fast-food restaurant. Through an interdisciplinary lens, Deborah Barndt examines the dynamic relationships between production and consumption, work and technology, biodiversity and cultural diversity, and health and environment. A globalization-from-above perspective is reflected in the corporate agendas of a Mexican agribusiness, the U.S.-based McDonald's chain, and Canadian-based Loblaws supermarkets. The women workers on the front line of these businesses offer a humanized globalization-from-below perspective, while yet another "globalization" is revealed through examples of resistance and local alternatives. This revised and updated edition highlights developments since the turn of the millennium, in particular the deepening economic integration of the NAFTA countries as well as the growing questioning of NAFTA's consequences and the crafting of alternatives built on foundations of sustainability and justice.

Download or read book Aunt Ruby's Green Tomato written by Bill Landis and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2023-09-07 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A professor of nutrition leaves his office and heads into the fields of a local farm to dig deeper into the reality of his food. With the help of several of his students, he films his experience chronicling the life of a tomato plant, from seed to harvest, on a small family farm. He is introduced to farm life at quirky Eco Farm by “Big John,” the rock star farmer. Over the course of one summer, he is schooled on the ways of organic agriculture, the sex life of the tomato, is introduced to the enigmatic world of heirloom tomatoes, and ponders the spiritual life of plants and the miracle of a seed. Told with humor and personal anecdotes from his food upbringing in New Jersey in the 1960s, he takes a fresh look at the changes in the American dietary landscape over the last half-century, and attempts to salvage a connection to his food. Upon visiting a tomato seed company in western North Carolina, he learns of a unique heirloom tomato - Aunt Ruby’s German Green – a rare, green-when-ripe variety. He decides to track down the story behind “Aunt Ruby” and her backyard tomato treasure, hidden from the world for most of her life. What starts out as a straightforward plan to learn more about where his food comes from, takes him on a journey of self-discovery that leaves him questioning his core assumptions about nutrition and the very essence of food, finally finding clarity by way of an elderly woman from a little town in Tennessee and her unusual tomato.
