Investigating the reproductive strategies of plants has grown to become a vast area of research and, in crop plants, covers events from flowering to fruit and seed development; in wild species, it extends up to seed dispersal and seedling recruitment. Thus, reproduction determines the extent of yield in crop plants and, in wild plants, also determines the efficacy of recruiting new adults to the population, making this field important both from fundamental and applied plant biology perspectives. Moreover, in light of the growing concerns regarding food and nutritional security for the growing population and preserving biological diversity, reproductive biology of flowering plants has acquired special significance. Extensive studies on various facets of reproduction are being carried out around the world. However, these studies are scattered across research journals and reviews from diverse areas of biology. The present volume covers the whole spectrum of reproductive ecology, from phenology and floral biology, to sexuality and pollination biology/ecology including floral rewards, breeding systems, apomixis and seed dispersal. In turn, transgene flow, its biosafety and mitigation approaches, and the ?global pollinator crisis?, which has become a major international concern in light of the urgent need to sustain crop yield and biodiversity, are discussed in detail. Given its scope, the book offers a valuable resource for students, teachers and researchers of botany, zoology, ecology, agriculture and forestry, as well as conservation biologists. 606 $aPlant physiology 606 $aPlant biochemistry 606 $aPlant anatomy 606 $aPlant development 606 $aAgriculture 606 $aFisiologia vegetal$2lemac 606 $aBiotecnologia vegetal$2lemac 606 $aPlant Physiology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L33020 606 $aPlant Biochemistry$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L14021 606 $aPlant Anatomy/Development$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L24019 606 $aAgriculture$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L11006 606 $aEcologia vegetal$2thub 606 $aReproducció de les plantes$2thub 606 $aFloració$2thub 606 $aConreu$2thub 608 $aLlibres electrònics$2thub 615 0$aPlant physiology. 615 0$aPlant biochemistry. 615 0$aPlant anatomy. 615 0$aPlant development. 615 0$aAgriculture. 615 7$aFisiologia vegetal 615 7$aBiotecnologia vegetal 615 14$aPlant Physiology. 615 24$aPlant Biochemistry. 615 24$aPlant Anatomy/Development. 615 24$aAgriculture. 615 7$aEcologia vegetal 615 7$aReproducció de les plantes 615 7$aFloració 615 7$aConreu 676 $a571.82 702 $aTandon$b Rajesh$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aShivanna$b K.
