Plant-Pathogen Interactions (Methods in Molecular Biology)

Book Description

Plant-Pathogen Interactions: Methods and Protocols provides key methods, approaches, and strategies to dissect the plant defense response. Addressing methods to identify and characterize plant resistance genes as well as pathogen-associated molecules that trigger the plant defense response, this volume creates a better understanding of the interactions between pathogens and their hosts, which will help to develop better methods for disease control in plants and animals.
Plant-Pathogen Interactions: Methods and Protocols reviews methods for engineering resistance to plant viruses, the utility of viral induced gene silencing and RNAi silencing, as well as advances in genomics and proteomics that have lead to new methods to identify genes and proteins. The protocols presented follow the successful Methods in Molecular Biology™ series format, each one offering step-by-step laboratory instructions, an introduction outlining the principle behind the technique, lists of equipment and reagents, and tips on troubleshooting and the avoidance of known pitfalls.

Book Description

Plant diseases are destructive and threaten virtually any crop grown on a commercial scale. They are kept in check by plant breeding strategies that have introgressed disease resistance genes into many important crops, and by the deployment of costly control measures, such as antibiotics and fungicides. However, the capacity for the agents of plant disease - viruses, bacteria, fungi, and oomycetes - to adapt to new conditions, overcoming disease resistance and becoming resistant to pesticides, is very great. For these reasons, understanding the biology of plant diseases is essential for the development of durable control strategies. Plant-Pathogen Interactions provides and overview of our current knowledge of plant-pathogen interactions and the establishment of plant disease, drawing together fundamental new information on plant infection mechanisms and host responses. The role of molecular signals, gene regulation, and the physiology of pathogenic organisms are emphasized, but the role of the prevailing environment in the conditioning of disease is also discussed. Emphasizing the broader understanding that has emerged from the use of molecular genetics and genomics, Plant-Pathogen Interactions highlights those interactions that have been most widely studied and those in which genome information has provided a new level of understanding.

Book Description

The many recent developments in plant sciences have important practical implications, particularly in the area of food production. This volume contains the proceedings of an international symposium on plant-pathogen interactions. Viral, bacterial, and fungal pathogens are all included and a
broad range of topics is covered, from expression of the cucumber mosaic virus, to the molecular genetics of bacterial blight of peas, and molecular responses of potato to infection by Phytophthora infestans. This authoritative volume presents an up-to-date review and will be of interest to all
those involved in plant physiology, plant molecular biology, biotechnology, and food production.

Book Description

Based on a similarly named meeting in December 1999 organized by the British Society for Plant Pathology, this book considers the biology of interations between host plants and the pathogens that infect them. This important topic has seen some significant advances in the past ten years, especially through the application of molecular techniques which are extensively covered in this book.

Book Description

An Introduction to Fire Dynamics Second Edition Dougal Drysdale University of Edinburgh, UK Fire Safety Engineering, identified in the original edition as 'a relatively new discipline', has since grown significantly in stature, as Fire Safety Engineers around the world begin to apply their skills to complex issues that defy solution by the old 'prescriptive' approach to fire safety. This second edition has the same structure as the first highly successful text, but has been updated with the latest research results. Fire processes are discussed and quantified in terms of the mechanisms of heat transfer and fluid flow. Problems addressed include:
* The conditions necessary for ignition and steady burning of combustible materials to occur
* How large a fire has to become before fire detectors and sprinkler heads will operate
* The circumstances that can lead to flashover in a compartment
This book is unique in that it identifies fire science and fire dynamics and provides the scientific background necessary for the development of fire safety engineering as a professional discipline. It is essential reading for all those involved in this wide ranging field, from Fire Prevention Officers to Consulting Engineers, whether involved in problems of fire risk assessment, fire safety design, or fire investigation. It will also be of considerable interest and value to research scientists working in building design, fire physics and chemistry.

Ótimo livro.......2007-07-17

É realmente um livro indispensável para qualquer profissional que lide com ciência do fogo. Seu conteúdo deveria fazer parte do currículo mínimo dos Cursos de Formação de Oficiais Bombeiros Militares (CFO-BM) e dos Cursos de Perícia de Incêndios ministrados no Brasil.

A great reference .......2006-11-15

An indispensable guide to Fire Science and excellent starting point in Fire Engineering - the old faithful of my undergraduate studies at University !

The Master Speaks - Again.......2006-08-22

An excellent update of Dr. Drysdale's "must-have" 1985 introduction to advanced fire physics. Dr. Drysdale brings the reader up-to-date (as of the 1998 publication date) on the state of the art in fire behavior, analysis, prediction and modeling.

I bought the paperback, because (a) the hardback is more expensive (Dr. Drysdale is Scottish, after all...); and (b) the 3rd edition is hopefully only a few years away. Readers in active day-to-date fire science application work probably will want the more durable hardback edition.

an introduction to fire dynamics . this is for you.......1999-03-10

fire is one of the most dangeris enamess that we have it can burn all that you have down to the ground and so'' an this saftey tip from me dont play with fire''' thank you... chris j coombes...
