Book Description
The world’s population reached 7.3 billion in 2015 and according to the United Nations, the world’s population will continue to grow by 1.18 % per year, projected to reach 8.5 billion in 2030 and 9.7 billion in 2050 (United Nations, 2015). Consequently, global demand for food is steadily rising and exerts a pressure on the need for more efficient crop production. However, efficient crop production is hampered by biotic and abiotic stress factors, such as drought. Drought poses the most important limitation to crop productivity in the world (Lauer et al. 2012) and increases in the frequency and intensity of drought events are predicted (Pachauri and Meyer 2014).

Book Description
The burgeoning demand on the world food supply, coupled with concern over the use of chemical fertilizers, has led to an accelerated interest in the practice of precision agriculture. This practice involves the careful control and monitoring of plant nutrition to maximize the rate of growth and yield of crops, as well as their nutritional value.

Book Description
This text presents the principles of mineral nutrition in the light of current advances. For this second edition more emphasis has been placed on root water relations and functions of micronutrients as well as external and internal factors on root growth and the root-soil interface.
Plant Nutrition Manual
Author: J. Benton Jones, Jr.Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 9781884015311
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 168
Book Description
Like all living things, plants require nutrient elements to grow. The Plant Nutrition Manual describes the principles that determine how plants grow and discusses all the essential elements necessary for successful crop production. The nutritional needs of plants that add color and variety to our visual senses are addressed as well. Altogether, nutritional requirements are given for 143 plants grouped in seven categories from food crop plants to ornamentals. The text begins with an introduction to the basic principles of plant nutrition. Chapters 2 and 3 describe the roles of the major elements and micronutrients. The last two chapters describe techniques for determining the nutrient element status of growing plants through plant analysis and tissue tests. The Plant Nutrition Manual is loaded with information on what plants need for normal vigorous growth and development-free of nutritional stress.

Pages : 418
Book Description
Eight invited papers review the major recent developments in the study of the movement of photoassimilates within the higher plants. The major events of the entire migration from the chloroplast of the photosynthetic cell to the sink organ are covered. The chapters discuss transport within photosynthetic cells and between leaf cells; the structure of phloem; the origin, destination, and fate of phloem solutes; the loading and unloading of photoassimilates, the physiological aspects of translation, and the relationship and regulation between source and sink organs. Includes an appendix of tables showing the physico-chemical aspects of phloem sap. Intended for postgraduate and advanced undergraduate students.
