Описание: The predicted depletion of fossil fuels has mobilised society and the scientific community towards the use of alternative and sustainable sources of energy. A promising alternative could be the valorisation of oil bearing crops via transesterification reactions towards the production of biodiesel. As such, the first chapter assesses the most significant contributions in the homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysed transesterification under acidic or alkaline conditions considering the parameters affecting the processes as well as biodiesel yields. The following chapter highlights the synthesis of copper soaps derived from edible oils, the synthesis of complexes with 2-amino-6-methyl Benzothiazole derived from already synthesised copper soaps for comparative studies, spectral studies, thermogravimetric analysis of copper soaps derived from groundnut, sesame, neem and karanja, and more. The authors go on to highlight biocidal studies performed to assess the comparative toxicity on two easily available fungi, Alternaria alternata and Aspergillus niger. The synthesis of copper soaps with increasing carbon atom p-substituted benzothiazoles is also examined. In the concluding chapter, the authors summarise the results of the microencapsulation technology of butylated hydroxyanisole carried out in their laboratory in recent years. Both free and microencapsulated butylated hydroxyanisole were in situ evaluated for controlling the mycoflora present in peanut stored in different systems intended for confectionery, seed and industry.

Описание: Provides details of those under-utilized cereals and pseudocereals which benefit from research and others which have been neglected and deserve more research attention. This book considers the potential for the following crops: quinoa, buckwheat, grain amaranth, triticale, fonio, intermediate wheatgrass and wild rice.

Описание: Genetic and genomic research has and will continue to have fundamental impact on the future of plant breeding. Cereals are the crops with the highest impact worldwide, providing more than 50% of the calories of human mankind. Given projected population growth in the next decades, the challenges of global climate change, and the growing demand for qualitatively high feed for our animals, cereal scientists and cereal breeders have to provide big efforts for the years to come. . . Applications of Genetic and Genomic Research in Cereals reviews the contributions of genetics and genomics to cultivar development that are already implemented and will become even more important in the next decade. . . This book focuses on cereals grown in temperate regions, mainly bread wheat, durum wheat, and barley, but will cover also breeding aspects in triticale and rye. Split into three main parts Applications of Genetic and Genomic Research in Cereals covers the outreach of these new techniques for practical breeding in a first part, as well as covering genetic and genomic approaches for improving special traits - drought tolerance, biotic stress, biomass production and more in the second part. The final part discusses the impact of modern techniques on practical breeding including hybrid breeding, genetic diversity, genomic selection. . Written by an international team of top acadmics and edited by an expert in the field Applications of Genetic and Genomic Research in Cereals will be of value to academics working in the agricultural sciences the book will also be essential reading for professionals working in plant breeding.
