        Beneficial Nematodes and Nematode Antagonistic Bioagents

        by S.Subramanian, R.Vetrivelkalai, M.Sivakumar & K.Poornima

        Based on the biocontrol potential of entomopathogenic nematodes it can be used in the pest combat strategies and bacteria, fungi and actinomycetes having biocontrol potential against plant parasitic nematodes. The book on Beneficial Nematodes and Nematode Antagonistic Bioagents comprises of two sections, the first section (chapter 1 to 16) deals with isolation, identification, molecular characterization, mass multiplication, formulations and shelf life of bacteria, fungi and actinomycetes. The second section (chapter 17 to 24) deals with isolation, identification, mass culturing of insect host and mass multiplication, formulations and field potential of entomopathogenic nematodes against economically important insect pests.

        A Handbook on Plant Health Medicines

        by Suresh G. Borkar

        Though different titles of plant protection books are available, no book is as much illustrative as the present book of Plant Health Medicines. The book A Handbook on Plant Health Medicines is prepared with an objective to make available the scientific as well as working knowledge of useful and recommended plant protection and plant health medicines to the personnel associated with agriculture in different capacities and at different levels, and to the end users, i.e. farmers. The book contains three sections viz. chemical molecules for control of plant diseases, chemical molecules to control plant physiological process and physiological disorders, and Pesticides for management of plant insect pests. These three sections are divided into 30 chapters. The respective section has got images of all the representative diseases, pests, as well as mineral deficiencies symptoms for the identification of the cause and different molecules for their control and rectification, thus making the book more practical use oriented to all personnel associated with agriculture sector. With its availability particularly, to pesticide shop dealers and farmers, the proper plant protection and plant health medicines will be applied in the agricultural ecosystem to manage the problem associated with plant health.

        Plants for Novel Drug Molecules

        Ethnobotany To Ethnopharmacology

        by Bikarma Singh & Yash Pal Sharma

        The present book is based on twenty five excellent scientific contributions of seventy researchers from topmost research organizations. The book begin with plants used in Sowa-Rigpa system of food and medicine, followed by traditional uses of plants as medicine among Khasi tribe living in northeast India. This compilation contains several research techniques highlighting methods and analysis of documented data, and procedure for scientific validation of findings. Methods for assessing traditional knowledge of highly threatened plants such as Hodgsoniaheteroclita, pharmacological applications of family asteraceae, ethnobotany of family apiaceae, plants used in managing leucorrhea, plants as animal care, phytochemistry of Arisaemajacquemontii, Andrographispaniculata, Blumealacera, Boerhaaviadiffusa, Hemidesmusindicus, Pterocarpussantalinus, Rauwolfiaserpentina, Rauwolfiatetraphylla, and several other ethnobotanical and ethnopharmacological parameters used in studying current science is described in this book. Besides, it is followed by several research topics focused to the clinical arena, plants used in relation to cancer, diabetes, skin disorders and many other aspects relates to animal and human health care. Todays food supplements derived from plants are of high demand, and this compilation also highlighted several plants used as nutraceuticals. It has been observed that herbs contain many bioactive compounds with powerful antioxidant properties as evidence from the scientific data, and few research on lianas, lichens and role of allylisothiocyanate as a bioprotective agent also discussed added more value to this compilations. Focused theme such as ethnobotanical trends and techniques, phytochemistry, biological activities, ethnopharmacology and clinical studies is adding and contributing a lots value to this book in discovering leads for medicine formulations.

        Pongamia for Bio-Energy and Better Environment

        by M.V.R. Prasad

        Pongamia pinnata is also credited with several preventive and curative properties as established by Ayurvedic medicine. It may be recalled that in the decades of nineteen seventies a few villages reaped sustainable incomes in the face of acute and chronic droughts that plagued the nation, solely due to the availability of some old Pongamia / karanj tree stands around those zones. Kranj oil has exhibited promise as a source of green energy. Nevertheless, the research on improvement of Karanj and its management as a productive plantation is nebulous. It is heartening that the Monograph on Karanj by Dr. M.V.R. Prasad fills this void. Dr. Prasad has been pursuing the work on oil bearing perennial trees of which Pongamaia pinnata has been studied in greater detail during the decades starting from nineteen eighties to date. The Monograph describes clearly as to how Pongamia pinnata could be harnessed to exploit the proven and potential benefits cited above, in addition to giving valuable information on its genetic improvement and plantation management.

        Concepts and Principles of Rainfed Agriculture and Watershed Management

        by Mahendra Singh Pal

        Agriculture is a backbone of Indian economy as nearly 60% rural population is engaged in agricultural activities. Though the contribution of agriculture in GDP is declining mainly due to increasing contribution of other activities, it is still the main occupation of our rural masses and its significance is related to food and nutritional security of our country. It is again true that the income of farmers is not increasing as compared to other industrial sectors, so the government has recently launched many farmers friendly programs for increasing farmers income.
