At a time when much of humanity is already but one failed harvest removed from starvation, we cannot afford to ignore any potential danger to food security, especially when that danger poses a threat to rice, the staff of life for so much of the world. Crop Ferality and Voluntee…
Sind gentechnisch veränderte Pflanzen eine Zukunftsperspektive? Lösen sie die Ernährungsprobleme der Menschheit? Aktuell und kompetent geben die Autoren in diesem Lehrbuch einen Überblick über die Chancen und Risiken der pflanzlichen Gentechnik: Grundlegende Methoden, moderne Ve…
An on-the-ground research biologist tells a clear-eyed story of modern plant genetics, the human manipulation of biology, and the reality of genetically engineered plants worldwide. Annotation. Largely celebrating the use of biotechnology in agriculture, although at times critic…
"This book makes a significant contribution to the debate about the applications and implications of gene technology from the perspective of a plant biologist. It is written in an accessible way and therefore will be appropriate for non-specialists and the more general reader, a…
