Описание: The first part starts with an evaluation of the significance of the different pollination mechanisms for plant breeding and crop produc- tion, describes modes of reproduction in higher plants and discusses ecology and dynamics of pollination.

Описание: The subject of this book is reproduction-specifically, the interplay between reproductive physiology (especially neural and endocrine events) and behavior. In presenting this topic, there are two expository goals. The first is to study repro- duction at all of the major levels of biological organization-from the molecular (e. g., hormone receptors in the brain), through the cellular (e. g., ovarian morphogene- sis), systemic (e. g., operation of the hypothalamo-pituitary-ovarian axis), and the organismic levels of organization. Analogously, behavior is treated from the most molecular, elementary, and fundamental components (e. g., copulatory reflexes), through behavior in the reproductive dyad (e. g., analysis of female sexual behav- ior), to complex social behavior (e. g., the interaction of social context and behav- ioral sex differences). To the extent that these levels of biological and behavioral organization rep- resent a "vertical axis" in behavioral neurobiology, a second goal is to treat the "horizontal axis" of biological organization, viz., time. There are, therefore, treat- ments of evolutionary origins (e. g., a phylogenetic survey of psychosexual differ- entiation), genetic origins in the individual (e. g., sexual organogenesis), ontoge- netic development (e. g., behavioral sexual differentiation), and the immediate physiological precursors of behavior (e. g., hormonal and nonhormonal initiation of maternal behavior). In addition to tracing the origins of reproduction and reproductive behavior, one extends the time-line from the behavior to its physio- logical consequences (e. g., neuroendocrine consequences of sexual behavior).

Описание: If there is only one part of the year that is favourable, such as spring and early summer in the temperate climates, then each species must make an evolutionary choice, so to speak, as to which parts of the reproductive cycle - conception, gestation, lactation or weanin- must be protected and which can come in less favourable times of the year.

Описание: For many years I have hesitated to attempt a monographic presentation because I felt uneasy about the idea of delineating something I am not sure about myself, and I felt it might be rash to try to integrate what seemed-and largely still seems-to consist of a heap of tessera not fitting together.

Описание: This book explores how conditions for childbearing are changing in the 21st century under the impact of new biomedical technologies. This is invaluable reading for scholars of medical anthropology, medical sociology and science and technology studies, as well as for the fields of gender studies, reproductive health and genetic disease research.

Описание: Three major aspects that distinguish this book are that (1) it contains the most detailed analysis of the sexual reproduction (oogenesis, fertilization and embryonic incubation) in a particular phylum of the aquatic invertebrates (Bryozoa) ever made; this analysis is based on an exhaustive review of the literature on that topic published over the last 260 years, as well as extensive original histological, anatomical and morphological data obtained during studies of both extant and extinct species; (2) this broad analysis has made it possible to reconstruct the major patterns, stages and trends in the evolution of sexual reproduction in various bryozoan clades, showing numerous examples of parallelisms during transitions from broadcasting to embryonic incubation, from planktotrophic to non-feeding larvae and from lecithotrophy to placentation; corresponding shifts in oogenesis, fertilization and embryonic development are discussed in detail; and (3) the key evolutionary novelties acquired by Bryozoa are compared with similar innovations that have evolved in other groups of marine invertebrates, showing the general trends in the evolution of their sexual reproduction. Ecological background of these innovations is considered too. Altogether these aspects make the monograph an “Encyclopedia of bryozoan sexual reproduction,” offering an integral picture of the evolution of this complex phenomenon.

Описание: The aim of the book is to understand why asexual reproduction and its many different forms have very uneven distributions within and among different taxonomic groups. This is illustrated with reference to the major groups of extant land plants - the bryophytes, ferns, gymnosperms and angiosperms.

Описание: Provides insight into the underlying beliefs that scientists have regarding moral and biological issues involved in human life - such as decisions that influence reproductive practices, the termination of life, and the pursuit of biomedical research. This volume uses a descriptive base to develop an ethic based on rational liberalism.

Описание: Although a role of the nervous system was recognized for the reflex-like induction of ovulation in rabbits and cats and the in- duction of pseudopregnancy in rats and mice, and although there was even some evidence of neural participation in ovulation in rats, a major central neural role in the female cycle of most species was not apparent.
