Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. 1st Edition. Diagnosis involves careful observation of crop with a thorough knowledge of crop behaviour as well as a complete understanding of functions of nutrients and their deficiency symptoms. Diagnostic techniques vary from crop to crop depending upon the field condition in which the deficiency occurs. Indian agriculture has entered into an era of multiple nutrient deficiencies. Realizing the gravity of emerging problem of nutrient deficiencies and to fulfill an immediate need to tackle them more efficiently, a guide on diagnosis of nutritional disorders and their corrections in crop plants has been prepared. All the new diagnostic techniques have been discussed in a simple language. The book has been designed in such a way as to improve the knowledge on diagnosis of deficiencies of mineral elements essential for normal plant growth, and of the methods by which such deficiencies may most effectively be remedied. The main feature of this book is the detailed description of the various visual deficiency symptoms exhibited by the fruit crops. The book has been written primarily for the use of the students of Horticulture and Agriculture to help update their knowledge on nutritional and physiological disorders of fruit crops. It is also felt that the book will provide a suitable basis for those engaged in the profession of agriculture like extension workers and progressive farmers. We hope that this book will go a long way to help in increased fruit production by proper diagnosis and suitable correction of nutritional disorders in fruit crops.

This book provides an exhaustive coverage of effect of climate change on crops including ways for mitigation. It details with how climate change occurs, how it affects agriculture and strategies for agriculture practices to adapt to climate change and provides long term agriculture techniques to mitigate the effects of climate change. Recognizing the importance of climate change and agriculture, this book explores timely contributions about the current state of climate change effects on agriculture and environment. This text analyzes the global consequences climate change effects on crop yields, production, and socioeconomic scenarios. The text discusses the impact of changing climate on agriculture, adaptation mechanism, impact of global warming, and climate change on different crops. It explores the overall global picture in terms of the effect of climate change on crops and suggests strategies for mitigating and adapting to climate change. This book also deals with biotechnological approaches to improve crop adaptation to climate change, carbon sequestration, effect of climate change on nutrient availability and acquisition and methods of estimating climate change impact on agriculture. The book contains 30 chapters starting from history of climate change, greenhouse gases production, effect on crop physiological processes viz., photosynthesis and respiratory processes, crop growth and productivity crop yield and seed quality and pest interactions.

Prakash and A. Anandan. 10. Breeding for drought tolerance: looking back the pathway/S. Laskshmi Narayanan, S.M. Ibrahim and K. Balakrishnan . Stress environment is one of the major limiting factors for the crop productivity. Stress can be classified into biotic and abiotic according to the nature of the responsible factor. Abiotic stress refers to the stress caused by water, salt, oxygen, CO2 light temperature, nutrients etc. About 10% of the arable land of the world alone are categorized as free of abiotic stresses. The remaining include 20% under some kind of mineral stress, 26% affected by drought stress, 15% by freezing stress and the remaining area under other type of stresses. Extensive information on various aspects of abiotic stresses has been generated in the recent past. However this information remains scattered. Hence an attempt has been made to bring an exhaustive collection of various stresses among different crops.
