  • Conceptual Breakthroughs in Comparative Animal Physiology

    • 1st Edition
    • James Hicks + 1 more
    • English
    Conceptual Breakthroughs in Comparative Animal Physiology tells a story of innate human curiosity about the natural world, and a deeply creative discipline, shaped by varied environments, unusual organisms, elegant experiments, and the persistent effort to understand how animals work and why they work the way they do—along the way discovering “adaptations and mechanisms of the most surprising character”.Written by two leading experts in the field, each chapter reflects on the origins of ideas and the approach of turning natural diversity into experimental design. From deserts to oceans, from the anoxia-tolerant animals to endothermic insects, from deep-diving mammals to the integration of “omics,” each chapter follows the discoveries and people who were compelled to modify their view of “what life can do.” The chapters also highlight the long-term influence of key conceptual breakthroughs, demonstrating how insights from comparative physiology have shaped not only the field itself but also, ecology, evolution, and engineering.As scientists strive to understand the complexity of living systems, the book underscores the inherent integrative nature of comparative physiology, revealing a process that strives to connect genes to organisms and organisms to environments, and providing a framework for understanding the diversity of life. This is an essential resource for undergraduates, graduate students and researchers interested in physiology with its comprehensive synopsis on the field’s foundational history and significant advances.

    • Volume 119
    • English
    Advances in Sugarcane Research: From Molecular Insights to Field Applications presents a comprehensive and integrative overview of contemporary sugarcane science, bridging fundamental discoveries with crop modeling and climate change. As one of the world’s most important crops for sugar and bioenergy production.This volume brings together leading experts to explore advances across multiple scales of research—from genomics, molecular biology, and genetic improvement to plant physiology, stress responses, and crop management. Emerging approaches such as omics technologies, artificial intelligence, and functional genomics are addressed as a way to transform sugarcane breeding and accelerating the development of climate-resilient cultivars. In addition to molecular and physiological perspectives, the book addresses key aspects of agronomy, including plant nutrition, soil constraints, root system dynamics, and sustainable management practices. Special attention is given to abiotic stresses such as drought and ozone, as well as their underlying mechanisms and implications for sugarcane growth. The integration of crop modeling and agrometeorology further provides tools for predicting crop performance and supporting decision-making under limiting environmental conditions. Overall, this volume aims to serve as a key reference for understanding current progress and future directions in sugarcane research.
