Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Global food production needs to be increased by 70 % in 2050. To feed ourselves we need innovative thinking on how to increase agricultural production while mitigating climate change. Agricultural production and land-use change are responsible for ~30 % of total anthropogenic greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. If agricultural production continues to be managed in a similar fashion as today, the effects on global climate change will increase. However, agriculture has a significant potential for climate change mitigation, but is still only marginally introduced to mitigation policies. To identify actions, that affect GHG emissions from agricultural production, the development of analytical models and tools is essential. Such models are necessary to identify factors, which can be addressed by future climate change mitigation policies. This book presents the Kaya-Porter identity as a novel inventory framework to estimate and analyse GHG emissions from agricultural crop production, by deconstructing emission into its relevant elements, as a basis for policy-making on climate change mitigation.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 132 pp. Englisch.

Zustand: Sehr gut. Zustand: Sehr gut | Seiten: 812 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | Maize is one of the world¿s highest value crops, with a multibillion dollar annual contribution to agriculture. The great adaptability and high yields available for maize as a food, feed and forage crop have led to its current production on over 140 million hectares worldwide, with acreage continuing to grow at the expense of other crops. In terms of tons of cereal grain produced worldwide, maize has been number one for many years. Moreover, maize is expanding its contribution to non-food uses, including as a major source of ethanol as a fuel additive or fuel alternative in the US. In addition, maize has been at the center of the transgenic plant controversy, serving as the first food crop with released transgenic varieties. By 2008, maize will have its genome sequence released, providing the sequence of the first average-size plant genome (the four plant genomes that are now sequenced come from unusually tiny genomes) and of the most complex genome sequenced from any organism. Among plant science researchers, maize has the second largest and most productive research community, trailing only the Arabidopsis community in scale and significance. At the applied research and commercial improvement levels, maize has no peers in agriculture, and consists of thousands of contributors worthwhile. A comprehensive book on the biology of maize has not been published. The "Handbook of Maize: the Genetics and Genomics" center on the past, present and future of maize as a model for plant science research and crop improvement. The books include brief, focused chapters from the foremost maize experts and feature a succinct collection of informative images representing the maize germplasm collection.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book discusses advances in our understanding of the structure and function of the maize genome since publication of the original B73 reference genome in 2009, and the progress in translating this knowledge into basic biology and trait improvement. Maize is an extremely important crop, providing a large proportion of the world's human caloric intake and animal feed, and serving as a model species for basic and applied research. The exceptionally high level of genetic diversity within maize presents opportunities and challenges in all aspects of maize genetics, from sequencing and genotyping to linking genotypes to phenotypes. Topics covered in this timely book range from (i) genome sequencing and genotyping techniques, (ii) genome features such as centromeres and epigenetic regulation, (iii) tools and resources available for trait genomics, to (iv) applications of allele mining and genomics-assisted breeding. This book is a valuable resource for researchers and students interested in maize genetics and genomics.
