Arthropods - New Advances and Perspectives
Author: Vonnie D.C. Shields
Publisher: BoD – Books on Demand
ISBN: 1803556129
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 244
Book Description
This book provides contributions on various topics pertaining to arthropods (insects and non-insects) written by experts in their respective fields. It targets a wide audience of entomologists, biologists, ecologists, zoologists, teachers, and students. The book is divided into four main sections on 'Development”, 'Food Detection and Feeding Behavior”, 'Vector-borne Diseases”, and 'Structure and Function of Vision”.

Glucosinolates: Properties, Recovery, and Applications
Author: Charis Michel Galanakis
Publisher: Academic Press
ISBN: 0128164948
Category : Health & Fitness
Languages : en
Pages : 344
Book Description
Glucosinolates: Properties, Recovery and Applications covers all the important aspects of glucosinolates (properties, processing and recovery issues, particular applications). Starting from the metabolism, health effects and biosynthesis of glucosinolates, the book then deals with recovery, analysis and processing issues in order to reveal their potential applications. Bringing the latest advances in the field, the book also covers practical approaches and applications, giving emphasis to their diversity in plants, the debate of "good" and "bad" glucosinolates, biosynthetic pathways and metabolism, the influence of the food supply chain on decomposition and intake, sustainable sources of glucosinolates, processing and cooking effects, and more. Written by a team of chemists, biochemists, food scientists and technologists, this book is a helpful resource for anyone dealing with food science, technology and new product developments in food, natural products and in health industries. Thoroughly explores the most trending topics of glucosinolates, giving emphasis on their diversity in plants Covers properties, processing, recovery issues and particular applications of glucosinolates Brings the health effects of glucosinolates, metabolomics and decomposition

Introduction to Ecological Biochemistry
Author: J. B. Harborne
Publisher: Gulf Professional Publishing
ISBN: 9780123246868
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 340
Book Description
Ecological biochemistry concerns the biochemistry of interactions between animals, plants and the environment, and includes such diverse subjects as plant adaptations to soil pollutants and the effects of plant toxins on herbivores. The intriguing dependence of the Monarch butterfly on its host plants is chosen as an example of plant-animal coevolution in action. The ability to isolate trace amounts of a substance from plant tissues has led to a wealth of new research, and the fourth edition of this well-known text has consequently been extensively revised. New sections have been provided on the cost of chemical defence and on the release of predator-attracting volatiles from plants. New information has been included on cyanogenesis, the protective role of tannins in plants and the phenomenon of induced defence in plant leaves following herbivory. Advanced level students and research workers aloke will find much of value in this comprehensive text, written by an acknowledged expert on this fascinating subject.

The Nature of Nutrition
Author: Stephen J. Simpson
Publisher: Princeton University Press
ISBN: 0691145652
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 260
Book Description
Nutrition has long been considered more the domain of medicine and agriculture than of the biological sciences, yet it touches and shapes all aspects of the natural world. The need for nutrients determines whether wild animals thrive, how populations evolve and decline, and how ecological communities are structured. 'The Nature of Nutrition' addresses nutrition's enormously complex role in biology, both at the level of individual organisms and in their broader ecological interactions.
