Practical Mathematics for Precision Farming

By: David E. Clay,Sharon A. Clay,Stephanie A. Bruggeman

As the public and producers becomes more aware of the environmental and economic benefits of precision farming, there has been increased demand for quality training to accurately evaluate spatial variability within fields. Practical Mathematics in Precision Farming provides hand-on training and examples for certified crop consultants (CCAs), farmers, crop consultants, and students (both undergraduate and graduate) on how to conduct to conduct and analyze on-farm studies, write simple programs, use precision techniques to scout for pests and collect soil samples, develop management zones, determine the cost of production, assess the environmental consequences of precision techniques, understand soil test results, and develop site-specific nutrient and plant population algorithms. Using real agronomic examples, the reader is taught the crucial task of managing products and inputs for application at the right rate, place, and time.

Mycorrhizal Symbiosis

By: Sally E. Smith,David J. Read

The roots of most plants are colonized by symbiotic fungi to form mycorrhiza, which play a critical role in the capture of nutrients from the soil and therefore in plant nutrition. Mycorrhizal Symbiosis is recognized as the definitive work in this area. Since the last edition was published there have been major advances in the field, particularly in the area of molecular biology, and the new edition has been fully revised and updated to incorporate these exciting new developments. - Over 50% new material - Includes expanded color plate section - Covers all aspects of mycorrhiza - Presents new taxonomy - Discusses the impact of proteomics and genomics on research in this area

AnticoagulantsPhysiologic, Pathologic, and Pharmacologic

By: David Green

Anticoagulants provides authoritative reviews of proteins C and S, antithrombin III, and the recently described tissue factor pathway inhibitor. There are extensive discussions of pathologic anticoagulants, such as those found in patients with congenital clotting factor deficiencies or those that arise de novo in previously well individuals. Detailed clinical advice is presented for the management of patients with these inhibitors. A chapter on "lupus" anticoagulants provides a comprehensive review of the pathophysiology of these intriguing antibodies. Current guidelines are offered for the use of heparin, warfarin, and thrombolytic agents. The biochemistry, physiology, and clinical applications of the new, low molecular weight heparins are explored.

Cancer Bioinformatics

By: Ying Xu,Juan Cui,David Puett

This book provides a framework for computational researchers studying the basics of cancer through comparative analyses of omic data. It discusses how key cancer pathways can be analyzed and discovered to derive new insights into the disease and identifies diagnostic and prognostic markers for cancer. Chapters explain the basic cancer biology and how cancer develops, including the many potential survival routes. The examination of gene-expression patterns uncovers commonalities across multiple cancers and specific characteristics of individual cancer types. The authors also treat cancer as an evolving complex system, explore future case studies, and summarize the essential online data sources. Cancer Bioinformatics is designed for practitioners and researchers working in cancer research and bioinformatics. It is also suitable as a secondary textbook for advanced-level students studying computer science, biostatistics or biomedicine.
