Produktinformationen zu „Genetics, Physiology and Cultivation of Moth Bean, Cowpea and Horse Gram (PDF)“
This authored book gives insight into the morphology, physiology, genetics, plant protection and biotechnology of three important arid legumes, viz., moth bean, cowpea and horse gram. There are seven chapters for each crop that provide in-depth information on cultivation, genetic improvement, plant protection measures, management of physiological and abiotic stresses along with related genetic markers and biotechnological advances pertaining to these legumes. The chapters present research findings and brief reviews concerning the advances made in the improvement of these legumes.
Legumes are utilized as pulses or grains aiding as an important source of protein for both human and animal consumption and also provide raw materials to the food and feed industries. They are also valuable for soil building, improving soil quality and biological nitrogen fixation. Physiology and genetics provide an inimitable source of information on the distinct aspects of basic and applied legume research for general readers, students, academicians and researchers. Arid legumes are crops characterized by inherent features and capabilities to withstand adverse and harsh climatic conditions, significantly replenish the soil, as well as provide protein and micronutrients. Adaptability to several stresses including drought makes them key to agriculture in areas receiving scanty rainfall.
This comprehensive book disseminates significant information on the genetic diversity, cultivation, manipulation through mutagenic techniques, molecular biology and other breeding techniques. The book, therefore, is of importance to teachers, researchers and policymakers who are interested to acquire knowledge about moth bean, cowpea and horse gram. It also serves as an additional reading material for MSc and PhD students of agriculture and environmental sciences. The book is also useful to national and international agricultural scientists and policymakers.
Autoren-Porträt von Rakesh Pathak
Dr Rakesh Pathak a obtained PhD from the Jai Narain Vyas University, Jodhpur, in 2008. He is an assistant chief technical officer in the Central Arid Zone Research Institute, Jodhpur, Rajasthan and is a fellow of the Institution of Chemists (India). Dr Pathak has published more than 100 research papers and book chapters on molecular characterization and genetic diversity studies of several crops and trees in journals and books of national and international repute. He has molecularly characterized and submitted more than 200 novel gene sequences belonging to plant varieties/germplasm, macro-fungi, fungal pathogens and PGPRs with NCBI, USA, to address Indian biodiversity. Dr Pathak has delivered several oral and poster presentations in national and international conferences. He has been regularly reviewing manuscripts as a referee for high-impact journals.
