The book entitled 'Plant Growth Regulators, Biostimulants and Chemicals on Horticultural Crops' is aimed to address the recent development in both basic and applied aspects of plant growth regulators on horticultural crops. Over the last 60 years, plant growth regulators (PGRs) become an integral part in the production of crops in general and horticultural crops in particular. Moreover, the importance of PGRs is felt more immensely in horticultural crops than the field crops. The perennial nature, rich in phytochemicals, shelf-life and other quality attributes of horticultural crops warrants the physiological interventions through applications of PGRs. Hence, this book has been designed to address the above issues and also to fulfill the needs of the undergraduate, post-graduate students of horticulture in the field of PGRs across the country. This book comprises of both basic (seven chapters) and applied aspects (14 chapters) of plant growth regulators including plant growth inhibitors and retardants and novel plant growth regulators. The other basic aspects are animal products as bioenhancer, plant extracts, growth regulating biochemicals and other inorganic chemicals used to stimulate the crop growth. The role of PGRs in enhancing plant growth, yield, quality and shelf-life of different horticultural crops viz., fruits, vegetables, spices, plantation crops, medicinal, aromatic, flowers and ornamental plants are included in the applied aspects. In addition to the above, preparations of PGRs solutions, PGRs use efficiency, phytotoxicity and other guidelines and safety measures are also included as chapters. It can be humbly claimed that such exclusive and elaborative collection and compilation of recent developments in the field of PGRs and its applications in horticultural crops in a single publication of its kind and this publication will be useful to the students, teachers, scientists, planners and farmers concerned with production of horticultural crops.…

The mountainous Western Ghats (WG that comes to just 6% of the total land area of India, holds more than 30% of India's biodiversity and several other specialties. However, WG qualifies unfortunately to be an under explored region even in the case of higher plant species. The terrain is one of the 10 "Hottest biodiversity hotspots'' of the world, apart from it being one of the 34 global biodiversity hotspots and serving a critical role in sequestration of carbon emission of India. Many factors continue to threaten the survival of endangered plants of this region. This book has documented 2113 flowering plants from Wayanad district alone including 496 endemic plants and contains a detailed account of 230 selected RET plant species of Western Ghats. The high quality colour photos of each plant species given in this book will help the readers in the proper identification of plants in the field. …

Detailed account has been presented on major agricultural crops such as wheat, rice, maize, sorghum, organic pigeon pea, millets, niger and cotton. Chapters on as to how can underutilize bioresources be brought under commercial umbrella. Sustainability cannot be ensured without animal bioresources, therefore chapters have been included on cattle, Indian livestock, poultry, native chickens, camelids etc., and also on pollinator fauna. Chapters are included on monitoring methods for presence of adventitious presence of transgenes and xenobiotic monitoring. Community is the central point in sustainable agrobiodiversity management. The awareness, community strategies, social equity, conservation of local practices and community participation are the key words. The chapters have been included on indigenous practices for seed storage, conservation of traditional water tanks, tribal farmers' knowledge and practices, role of women in conservation, organic practices, community seed networks, community p.…
