Cover Crops and Sustainable Agriculture
This book will not serve as the "encyclopedia of cover crop management," but it’s close.The benefits of a wide range of individual cover crops and blends/mixes for specific agronomic crop rotations and geographic locations are included.Descriptions, photographs, and illustrations show how cover crops look in the field, including plant height, leaf architecture, and rooting patterns.Long term benefits are described for soil health, soil structure, water quality, nutrient contributions, soil biodiversity, air quality and climate change.In addition to the "whys" of cover crop use, the book includes details on the "hows:" how to choose cover crops for specific applications and locations; how (and when) to plant; how to manage and maintain the cover for maximum benefit; and how and when to terminate.Planting options include: drilling/planting between rows of an agronomic crop at planting time, or when the crop is short (i.e. corn in early June); "aerial" seeding with an airplane or high-clearance machine shortly before the crop reaches maturity; and drilling/planting immediately after harvest of the agronomic crop.Selected cover crops (blends) can help with pest and disease management.Cover crops are an economic input with an expected return on investment, similar to pesticides and fertilizer.As part of a continuous no-till system, cover crops provide long-term biological, chemical and structural benefits.The resulting increase in soil organic matter means the agronomic crop yields benefit from better water infiltration and water holding capacity, greater availability of nitrogen and other nutrients, deeper rooting, and increased soil microbial activity in the root zone.

Crops in Tight Spots
Selected as one of the best gardening reads of 2019 by The Daily MailShort of outdoor space but want to grow fruit and vegetables?Congratulations. Really, lucky you. Not for you the back-breaking trudge of tending large spaces of land, the weeding, digging and pest vigilance.Gluts? They will mean nothing to you. Instead you can look forward to small but perfectly formed bursts of flavour.Handfuls of fresh leaves, berries and tomatoes, just when you want them, and at arm's reach.As more of us live in cities with restricted outside spaces, growing food becomes all the more important, not just for the delicious results, but as a mindful way to connect us to the seasons and to nature.Full of tried-and-tested, fool-proof crop ideas exclusively tailored for containers, raised beds and small gardens, Crops in Tight Spots guarantees vegetable growing success for even the most newbie of gardeners and limited of spaces.

Grasses : Crops, Competitors, and Ornamentals
Combines new findings on morphological aspects, the latest data on gene function in grasses, and the interaction of grasses with their habitats 45% of all arable land is covered by five grass crops: wheat, maize, rice, barley and sugar cane.This book demonstrates why crops and weeds are growing in characteristic environments today, and looks at how cropping practices may change in the future and how these changes will affect weed spectra.It explains the distribution of grasses and their role for mankind and summarizes our knowledge on grass genomes.Special emphasis is placed on the function of genes at defined developmental stages and in organs of grasses.The development of grasses is then described from the germination to fruit set with many unpublished examples. Grasses: Crops, Competitors and Ornamentals provides readers with a comparative description of selected grass organs (stem, root, leaf, inflorescence) and devotes several chapters to habitats of grasses and morphological characteristics that enable grasses to grow in special environments.In addition, some chapters deal with grasses as crops and weeds, and emphasis is placed on their adaptation to modern agriculture. Predicts how cropping practices may change in the future and how these changes will affect weed spectraDetails grasses as crops and weeds, emphasizing their adaptation to modern agricultureSummarizes our knowledge on grass genomesConnects classical morphology with the latest tools in molecular biology as well as ecological aspects determining the wide distribution of grass species today Grasses: Crops, Competitors and Ornamentals will be of great interest to agricultural scientists who want to know more about crops and weeds, grassland specialists and breeders interested in special grass traits, and molecular biologists and ecologists who study the biology and habitat of grasses.

Breeding Disease-Resistant Horticultural Crops
Breeding Disease-Resistant Horticultural Crops is a complete and comprehensive resource for understanding the concept of breeding disease resistant crops, especially horticultural crops.Breeders of horticultural crops face distinct challenges that are different from agronomy/row crops, and these crops do not benefit from the vast body of literature available for agronomic crops.This book covers the basic theories that underpin breeding for disease resistance and features extensive real-world examples.Both classical and biotechnical breeding methods are covered, with an emphasis on how these methods are adapted for horticultural species. Presented in a logical flow for the reader, this book addresses historical perspectives and context as it relates to breeding for disease resistance.It highlights treatments of resistance in the context of the phenotype, the genotype, the pathogen, the environment interaction, sources of resistance, and the deployment of resistance to obtain a durable resistance.

Ganoderma Diseases of Tropical Crops
The fungal genus Ganoderma includes around 80 currently recognized species that are widely distributed in temperate, subtropical and tropical regions, and cause disease in a range of economically important perennial crops and tree-like plants.Ganoderma root and lower stem rots have a significant impact on yields from crops including oil palm, coconut, beverage crops, Acacia and rubber.The identification of species responsible for stem and butt rots is often ambiguous as closely related species may only be distinguished by subtle morphological differences.Within species there can be considerable morphological plasticity and this can make morphology-based identification difficult, particularly for species described from a single specimen.Molecular techniques are helping to slowly resolve Ganoderma taxonomy but it will be some time (if ever) before the taxonomy is fully resolved.This book brings together information on Ganoderma species that are reported to be responsible for crop diseases in tropical and sub-tropical agriculture and covers taxonomy, biology, genetics, aetiology, epidemiology and control.This book is an essential resource for researchers in Ganoderma in crop science and tropical agriculture, as well as practitioners and industry.
