This big issue has been globally viewed as an alarming threat to future sustainable agricultural development. Stresses of plants, caused by various climatic variables, are the principle factors behind the remarkable reductions in legume production. Over last decade, our understanding of plant adaptation to various environmental stresses has grown considerably. The threat of global environmental variability has made development of elite new varieties that could withstand the future expected harsh climatic conditions highly important. Much progress has been achieved in the identification and characterization of the underlying mechanisms that help symbiotic legumes overcome the negative impact of various abiotic stresses. We realize the necessity for evaluating the impact of these major stresses on the legumes performance. The present volume is an attempt to reach this goal. Recent interest in understanding legume responses to climate change makes this volume timely. The “Legume Nitrogen Fixation in a Changing Environment - Achievements and Challenges” volume brings together the state-of-the-art overview of the legume-rhizobia interaction in the context of a changing global environment. This volume focuses on the major environmental factors, namely drought, elevated temperature, salinity, soil acidity and rising carbon dioxide that substantially limit legume growth and productivity. Five chapters written by five internationally recognized research groups provide comprehensive coverage of the physiological, biochemical and molecular mechanisms that enable legume adaptation to these abiotic stressors. We believe that the knowledge included in this endeavor will be useful in building critical strategies to counter unfavorable conditions by leguminous plants. We enjoyed working on this volume in collaboration with the contributing authors. We hope that this volume will be of great value to legume researchers, and to people working with non-leguminous crop species as well.  .Life sciencesAgricultureBiotic communitiesBotanyBotanyPlant breedingMicrobiologyLife Sciences, generalhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L00004Agriculturehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L11006Ecosystemshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L1904XPlant Scienceshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L24000Plant Breeding/Biotechnologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L24060Microbiologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L23004Life sciences.Agriculture.Biotic communities.Botany.Botany.Plant breeding.Microbiology.Life Sciences, general.Agriculture.Ecosystems.Plant Sciences.Plant Breeding/Biotechnology.Microbiology.570577579580630631.52660.6Sulieman Saadedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtTran Lam-son Phanedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910298295903321Legume Nitrogen Fixation in a Changing Environment2502138UNINA03485nam 22006615 450 991109224100332120250724101954.00-306-47915-X10.1007/b100336(CKB)111087026975332(EBL)3035891(SSID)ssj0001239849(PQKBManifestationID)11951169(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001239849(PQKBWorkID)11207236(PQKB)10437133(SSID)ssj0000099016(PQKBManifestationID)11108445(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000099016(PQKBWorkID)10011819(PQKB)11124544(DE-He213)978-0-306-47915-1(Au-PeEL)EBL3035891(CaPaEBR)ebr10067263(OCoLC)517840959(MiAaPQ)EBC3035891(EXLCZ)9911108702697533220121227d2001 u| 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrAdvances in Nuclear Physics Volume 26 /edited by J.W.

The range of interest of the articles extends from the nature of the substructure of the nucleon and the deuteron to the general properties of the nucleus, including its phase transitions and its rich and unexpected quantal properties. The first article by Fillipone and Ji reviews the present experimental and theoretical situation pertaining to our knowledge of the origin of the spin of the nucleon. Until about 20 years ago the half-integral spin of the neutron and p- ton was regarded as their intrinsic property as Dirac particles which were the basic building blocks of atomic nuclei. Then, with the advent of the Standard Model and of quarks as the basic building blocks, the substructure of the - cleon became the subject of intense interest. Initial nonrelativistic quark m- els assigned the origin of nucleon spin to the fundamental half-integral spin of its three constituent quarks, leaving no room for contributions to the spin from the gluons associated with the interacting quarks or from the orbital angular momentum of either gluons or quarks. That naive understanding was shaken, about fifteen years ago, by experiments involving deep-inelastic scattering of electrons or muons from nucleons.Advances in Nuclear Physics ;26Nuclear physicsNuclear PhysicsNuclear physics.Nuclear Physics.539.7Negele John W47956Vogt Erich W.1929-44620MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9911092241003321Advances in Nuclear Physics4714629UNINA
