Bibliography. Wheat is considered as one key staple food crop in numerous parts of the globe. Like many other cereal crops, wheat is also affected by several biotic factors. Of these, entomological and pathological damages are the most worrying. Mineral elements have their crucial engagements in various mechanisms of the biological system, which may be physiological and/or biochemical. However, most of the wheat cultivars are micronutrient-deficit. To combat the worldwide malnutrition evil and related health hazards, bio-fortification is now considered to be the approach with the most proficiency and cost-effectiveness. This book provides a good deal of currently available information on origin, evaluation and botanical classification of wheat crop along with various agronomic, edaphic and climatic requirements for its cultivation. The book gives clear vision on present scenario regarding numerous devastating insect-pests and pathogens that attack this cereal including their management tactics. The book also gives brief idea regarding wheat seed production techniques, breeding and bio-fortification strategies with some previous studies for improvement of this significant cereal.

Hardback. Condition: New. Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have attracted high interest over the last few decades in the wireless and mobile computing research community. Applications of WSNs are numerous and growing, including indoor deployment scenarios in the home and office to outdoor deployment in an adversary's territory in a tactical background. However, due to their distributed nature and deployment in remote areas, these networks are vulnerable to numerous security threats that can adversely affect their performance.This problem is more critical if the network is deployed for some mission-critical applications, such as in a tactical battlefield. Random failure of nodes is also very likely in real-life deployment scenarios. Due to resource constraints in the sensor nodes, a traditional security mechanism with high overhead of computation and communication is not feasible in WSNs. Design and implementation of secure WSNs is, therefore, a particularly challenging task.This book covers a comprehensive discussion on state-of-the-art security technologies for WSNs. It identifies various possible attacks at different layers of the communication protocol stack in a typical WSN and presents their possible countermeasures. A brief discussion on the future direction of research in WSN security is also included.
