Soft cover. Zustand: New. Renowned for bringing the marvellous to the ordinary, Vinod Kumar Shukla has long been recognized as one of India's foremost writers, with a voice uniquely his own. The stories in Blue Is Like Blue deal with 'smaller-than-life people'. They live in rented accommodation, often in single rooms, where one electric bulb does for light. There's a nail to hang clothes from and a wall-to-wall string for the washing. When the clothes are dry, you place the carefully folded shirt under a pillow and lie down to sleep. Money is a concern, but the bazaar is the place to go and spend time in, especially if you have nothing to buy. The fear that you may be overcharged accompanies every transaction, but joy is not entirely absent. Few works of modern Indian literature come alive in English, and fewer still in the way that these stories do in Arvind Krishna Mehrotra and Sara Rai's brilliant translation. …

Soft cover. Zustand: New. Vegetable production is a vital component of agriculture, and significant progress has been made in this area since independence, with an initial yield of just 5.8 tons per hectare. However, the increasing demand from growing populations necessitates further increases in vegetable productivity. The constraints of shrinking land and water resources, coupled with the threat of climate change, require effective human and financial resources to support the development of technologies. The development of vegetable hybrids with genes for increased yield and resistance to biotic/abiotic stress, the production and protection of crops in problematic soils with reduced water and nutrient use, and safe pest and disease management, as well as the reduction of post-harvest losses and value-added processing are all important priorities. The book "Vegetable Science: Objective Type" provides a comprehensive overview of vegetable crops, covering topics such as production, breeding, and biotechnology, as well as statistics, biometrics, and the application of computer technology. The book also includes a special chapter on General Agriculture, providing readers with up-to-date information on agricultural practices.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Stress Tolerance in Horticultural Crops: Challenges and Mitigation Strategies explores concepts, strategies and recent advancements in the area of abiotic stress tolerance in horticultural crops, highlighting the latest advances in molecular breeding, genome sequencing and functional genomics approaches. Further sections present specific insights on different aspects of abiotic stress tolerance from classical breeding, hybrid breeding, speed breeding, epigenetics, gene/quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping, transgenics, physiological and biochemical approaches to OMICS approaches, including functional genomics, proteomics and genomics assisted breeding. Due to constantly changing environmental conditions, abiotic stress such as high temperature, salinity and drought are being understood as an imminent threat to horticultural crops, including their detrimental effects on plant growth, development, reproduction, and ultimately, on yield. This book offers a comprehensive resource on new developments that is ideal for anyone working in the field of abiotic stress management in horticultural crops, including researchers, students and educators.…
