Plant Reproductive Ecology : Patterns and Strategies
Author: Jon and Lesley Lovett-Doust Professor of Biology the University of WindsorPublisher: Oxford University Press, USA
ISBN: 0198021925
Category : Science

Pages : 362
Book Description
This collection of reviews by leading investigators examines plant reproduction and sexuality within a framework of evolutionary ecology, providing an up-to-date account of the field. The contributors discuss conceptual issues, showing the importance of sex allocation, sexual selection and inclusive fitness, and the dimensions of paternity and maternity in plants. The evolution, maintenance, and loss of self-incompatibility in plants, the nature of 'sex choice' in plants, and sex dimorphism are all explored in detail. Specific forms of biotic interactions shaping the evolution of plant reproductive strategy are discussed, and a taxonomically based review of the reproductive ecology of non-angiosperm plant groups, such as bryophytes, ferns, and algae, is presented. Together these studies focus on the complexities of plant life cycles and the distinctive reproductive biologies of these organisms, while showing the similarities between nonflowering plants and the more thoroughly documented flowering species.

Book Description
These volumes are an exhaustive source of information on the control and regulation of flowering. They present data on the factors controlling flower induction and how they may be affected by climate and chemical treatments. For each plant, specific information is provided on all aspects of flower development, including sex expression, requirements for flowering initiation and development, photoperiod, light density, vernalization, and other temperature effects and interactions. Individual species are described from the standpoint of juvenility and maturation, morphology, induction and morphogenesis to anthesis. All information is presented alphabetically for easy reference

Book Description
The ever increasing demand for food has to be met to save the mankind from starvation. Realizing the unprecedented potential of aroids as a food crop, a Global Conference on "Aroids: Opportunities and Challenges" was organized during 23-25 January 2012, by the Regional Centre of Central Tuber Crops Research Institute at Bhubaneswar, to share and discuss the latest developments in aroids research across the globe and formulate strategies and collaborative action plan to exploit the potential of aroids as food crop, and to introduce them in new areas. This book is a compilation of papers presented on different aspects of aroids during the conference.
