Plant breeding, especially molecular breeding is practised to propagate the more desirable characteristics. This has been the case for thousands of years, however technological advancements, genetic sequencing and rearranging. People, from gardeners and farmers, to professional plant breeders employed by government institutions, universities, crop specific industry associations or research centres, use biotechnology. International development agencies encourage breeding new crops to encourage food security by developing new varieties; that are higher-yielding, resistant to pests and diseases, drought-resistant or regionally adapted to different environments and growing conditions. The book is a contemporary comprehensive reference work on agricultural biotechnology. It is recommended for graduate and post graduate level courses in plant biotechnology or plant genetics. It is also an ideal reference for practitioners in the allied fields.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oryson Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51453351330070,"sku":null,"price":149.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0998\/8905\/3974\/files\/Biotechnology-In-Plant-Improvement.jpg?v=1781934386"},{"product_id":"botanical-analysis-of-plant-cells","title":"Botanical Analysis Of Plant Cells","description":"\u003cp\u003ePlant cells are eukaryotic cells; they are cells with a membrane-bound nucleus. In contrary to prokaryotic cells, the DNA in a plant cell is found within the nucleus. Plant cells also contain other membrane-bound organelles; that are tiny cellular structures that carry out specific functions necessary for normal cellular operation. Organelles do everything from producing hormones and enzymes to providing energy for a plant cell. Plant cells are similar to animal cells in various ways, but are larger than animal cells. Plant cells are also more similar in size to each other and are typically rectangular or cube shaped. They also contain structures, not found in an animal cell; the cell wall, a large vacuole, and plastids. This book describes, in detail, the structure and function of different kinds of plant cells and how plants reproduce. Any student of plant science will greatly benefit from such a book. It is the perfect companion to understand and expand one's knowledge, for professionals too.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oryson Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51453351362838,"sku":null,"price":129.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0998\/8905\/3974\/files\/Botanical-Analysis-Of-Plant-Cells.jpg?v=1781934397"},{"product_id":"current-trends-in-plant-biology","title":"Current Trends In Plant Biology","description":"\u003cp\u003ePlants, especially green plants, are multi cellular eukaryotes of the kingdom planate; along with flowering plants, conifers and other gymnosperms, ferns, clubmosses, hornworts, liverworts, mosses and green algae. Green plants have cell walls with cellulose and obtain most of their energy from sunlight through photosynthesis. Some plants are parasitic and have lost their ability to produce required amounts of chlorophyll or to photosynthesis. Botany is the scientific study of plants and is a branch of biology. Green plants provide most of the world's molecular oxygen and form the basis of most of the earth's ecologies; especially on land. Plants that produce grains, fruits and vegetables form mankind's consumption. Plants are used as ornaments and have served as the source of most medicines and drugs, in the past.\n\\nThrough photosynthesis, most plants use sunlight to convert carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, plus water, into simple sugars. These sugars are then used as building blocks and form the main structural component of the plant. Parasitic plants, on the other hand, use its host to grow. Some plants grow using oxygen dissolved in the surrounding water, and a few specialized vascular plants, like mangroves, can grow with their roots in anoxic conditions. Molecular biology are revolutionizing the study of plants and will be used to discover the mechanisms of development and to control such processes.

The general principles of tissue engineering involve combining living cells with a natural\/synthetic support or scaffold to build a three-dimensional living construct that is functionally, structurally and mechanically equal to or better than the tissue that is to be replaced. This book summarizes our current state of knowledge in stem cell research and integrates basic stem cell biology with regenerative medicine in an overall context.
