Advanced Molecular Plant Breeding Meeting the Challenge of Food Security

Advanced Molecular Plant Breeding Meeting the Challenge of Food Security

This new volume Advanced Molecular Plant Breeding: Meeting the Challenge of Food Security aims to provide a better understanding of molecular plant breeding in order to boost the quality of agriculture produce to increase crop yields and to provide nutritious food for everyone by 2050 when the global population is expected to reach a new height of about 10 billion. The challenge to provide quality food for such an increased population will be exacerbated by the depletion of natural resources and by shrinking arable land areas. However scientists believe the challenge can be met by implementing new and improved techniques of quantitative trait inheritance in plant breeding. Integrating genomics and molecular biology into appropriate tools and methodologies can help to create genetically engineered plants such as by using biotic and abiotic stress tolerance molecular markers ‘-omics’ technology and genome editing. The milestone of whole genome sequencing from Arabidopsis to rice has opened the door to a new era of functional genomics which aims to determine the functions of all the genes identified in their genomes which will help in the improvement of crop species qualitatively and quantitatively in order to meet the ongoing challenges of doubling world food production by 2050.

Chemical Applications of Symmetry and Group Theory

Chemical Applications of Symmetry and Group Theory

As the structure and behavior of molecules and crystals depend on their different symmetries group theory becomes an essential tool in many important areas of chemistry. It is a quite powerful theoretical tool to predict many basic as well as some characteristic properties of molecules. Whereas quantum mechanics provide solutions of some chemical problems on the basis of complicated mathematics group theory puts forward these solutions in a very simplified and fascinating manner. Group theory has been successfully applied to many chemical problems. Students and teachers of chemical sciences have an invisible fear from this subject due to the difficulty with the mathematical jugglery. An active sixth dimension is required to understand the concept as well as to apply it to solve the problems of chemistry. This book avoids mathematical complications and presents group theory so that it is accessible to students as well as faculty and researchers. Chemical Applications of Symmetry and Group Theory discusses different applications to chemical problems with suitable examples. The book develops the concept of symmetry and group theory representation of group its applications to I. R. and Raman spectroscopy U.

Mood Dysregulation Beyond the Bipolar Spectrum

Mood Dysregulation Beyond the Bipolar Spectrum

Reflecting the author’s vast clinical experience as a psychiatrist this volume explains why so many people with treatment resistant depression respond to medication used to treat individuals with bipolar disorder. The book also helps to minimize the bipolar stigma by introducing the concept of mood dysregulation. At present people with mood dysregulation are not adequately described on the pages of any diagnostic manual. A cardinal feature of mood dysregulation is dysphoria a negative mood that is poorly understood but mistaken for the negative mood of depression creating diagnostic confusion one of the sources of treatment resistant depression. The author explains that a preponderance of the people she has seen in her practice who have so-called depression have mood disorders with features of bipolar disorder including response to medications typically effective in people with bipolar disorders. Thus these people are research orphans: to this day a paucity of literature exists on this group of individuals. In this volume the author addresses the clinical problems that result from failure to recognize such mood disorders. Key features of the book: Provides a thorough discussion of dysphoria that is not found in other books on the market Proposes a solution to a common and troublesome clinical problem that of misidentified treatment resistant depression Helps to destigmatize the treatments that are most beneficial to those with dysphoria by introducing the concept of mood dysregulation Discusses the etiology of mood disorders with implications for prevention This volume aims to help mental health professionals and patients more accurately recognize negative mood symptoms dysphoria in particular and arrive at more appropriate interventions to improve treatment outcomes for depression. No other book on the market takes up the topic of dysphoria and how its confusion with depression can lead to diagnostic mistakes that in turn lead to treatment failures and so-called treatment resistant depression. | Mood Dysregulation Beyond the Bipolar Spectrum
