Evolution and Speciation in Plants

Plants are autotrophs and sessile while animals are heterotrophs and motile. Sessility has imposed on plants 94% hermaphroditism 23% selfing 3% polyploidization and 39% clonality in comparison to < 5% herma-phroditism < 1% selfing and 2% clonality in motile animals. Whereas plants consist of 374 000 species but 1 664 variety/species animals comprise 1 543 196 species and 210 variety/species. Hence plants have undergone variety diversity while animals have species diversity. In animals and plants the species ratio is reduced from 4. 1 animals : 1. 0 plant to 1. 4 for pollinating animals : 1. 0 pollinated plants. In pollination animals are benefited dietarily but plants are cross pollinated generating new gene combinations – the raw material for evolution and speciation. For the reduced species diversity in plants reasons are traced to 90% hermaphroditism ~ 23% selfing and 39% clonality. Clonality decreases from 100% in 6-7 tissue typed sponges and 3 tissue typed algae drastically to 0. 7% in 60 tissue typed worms but gradually to ~ 23% in 60 tissued typed angiosperms. About 12-15 5-8 and 77-80% of all animal and plant species are distributed in marine freshwater and terrestrial habitats respectively. Animals have conserved the ‘right’ sequence of gametogenesis but plants have gone through a ‘wrong’ sequence prior to settling with right one albeit with double fertilization in angiosperms. Both animals and plants are 80% male heterogametics. Only 0. 5% of them can afford semelparity. While 20 and 57% angiosperms are perennial trees and herbs annual herbs make up 23% only. In all of them 85 > 19 and < 1% are pollinated by fast flying animals wind and water respectively. Increasing pollen load enhances fruit- and seed-set. In contrast to animals the life cycle of plants is direct but complicated. Unlike animals plants have greatly contributed to weathering of rocks and the atmospheric gas composition during the geological past. From dormant spores and seeds of plants life can be restored after thousands of years. | Evolution and Speciation in Plants

Structural Genomics on Membrane Proteins

While the genomic revolution has quickly led to the deposit of more than 30 000 structures in the protein data bank (PDB) less than one percent of those contributions represent membrane proteins despite the fact that membrane proteins constitute some 20 percent of all proteins. This discrepancy becomes significantly troublesome when it is coupled with the fact that 60 percent of current drugs are based on targeting this group of proteins a trend that does not seem likely to reverse. Structural Genomics on Membrane Proteins provides an excellent overview on novel research in bioinformatics and modeling on membranes as well as the latest technological developments being employed in expression purification and crystallography to obtain high-resolution structures on membrane proteins. This cutting-edge work also explains the difficulties facing researchers—both technical and ethical—that have slowed the process. Structural Genomics on Membrane Proteins provides researchers with an unprecedented look at the novel technologies that will ultimately allow them to conquer the last frontier in structural biology leading to accelerated breakthroughs in drug discovery.

Mulberry Genetic Improvement in Context of Climate Change

Mulberry (Morus spp. ) is an important horticultural plant in the sericulture industry. It belongs to the family Moraceae. The leaf of mulberry is used to feed the silkworm Bombyx mori L. It is also used as a fodder. Due to its economic and agricultural importance mulberry is cultivated in many parts of the world. An estimated 60% of the total cost of silk cocoon production is for production and maintenance of mulberry plants. Therefore much attention is needed to improve the quality and quantity of mulberry leaves. It is vital to increase the production of superior quality mulberry leaves with high nutritive value for the sericulture industry. Although a lot of research is going on in mulberry very little effort has been made to compile the results of this research in a single book. This book provides an update of recent research works going on in this plant. It describes the taxonomy conservation of germplasm genetic diversity of various mulberry species application of breeding techniques to improve the quality of mulberry in vitro conservation application of tissue culture techniques to improve mulberry species production of haploids and triploids in mulberry and improvement of abiotic stress adaptive traits in mulberry with relevance to adaptiveness to global warming. | Mulberry Genetic Improvement in Context of Climate Change

CRC Handbook of Medicinal Spices

Let food be your medicine medicine your food. Hippocrates 2400 B. C. When the Father of Medicine uttered those famous words spices were as important for medicine embalming preserving food and masking bad odors as they were for more mundane culinary matters. Author James A. Duke predicts that spices such as capsicum cinnamon garlic ginger onion and turmeric will assume relatively more medicinal importance again as the economic costs and knowledge of the side-effects of prescription pharmaceuticals increase. After all each spice contains thousands of useful phytochemicals. Pharmaceuticals usually contain only one or two. Discover the Science behind the FolkloreSpices are important medicines that have withstood the empirical tests of millennia. Nearly 5 000 years ago Charak the father of Ayurvedic medicine claimed that garlic lightens the blood reduces tumors and is an aphrodisiac tonic. Today scientists say it thins the blood prevents cancer and increases libido. For centuries people worldwide have used spices to cure a myriad of ailments and to preserve foods. Now science is proving that these spices may preserve us with their antioxidant and antiseptic activities. Organized by scientific name the CRC Handbook of Medicinal Spices provides the science behind the folklore of over 60 popular spices. For each spice it lists:Scientific nameCommon nameMedicinal activities and indicationsMultiple activitiesOther uses especially culinaryCultivationChemistryImportant phytochemical constituents and their activitiesThe handbook also includes market and import data culinary uses ecology and cultural information and discusses at length the use of spices as antiseptics and antioxidants.
