Commercial Ornamental Crops by R L Misra,Sanyat Misra Pdf

A book which deals with 36 individual cut flower crops (Achillea, Alstroemeria, Amaryllis & Hippeastrum, Anemone, Anthurium, Antirrhinum, Callistephus chinensis, Campanula, Centaurea, Dahlia, Delphinium, Dendranthema, Dianthus caryophyllus, Digitalis, Eustoma, Gaillardia, Gerbera, Gladiolus, Gypsophila, Helianthus, Heliconia, Iberis, Lilium, Limonium, Matthiola, Narcissus, Orchids, Polianthes tuberosa, Rosa, Salpiglossis, Scabiosa, Solidago, Strelitzia, Tulipa, Zantedeschia and Zinnia), and two separate groups of plants which are either axillary to cut flowers or have included many other individuals to be used as cut flowers, i.e. "Cut Foliage/Cut Greens and Other Fillers" and "Proteaceous Ornamentals." Apart from the crops, the book is also supported with a comprensive Glossary and Index in the end. In floriculture, no book can cover all the crops entirely under a particular topic due to the crops being innumerable and also as many new crops are being brought out every year but efforts have here been made to cover all the important ones looking into the past publications on the topic, the world scenario, the crop importance, the curriculum of M.Sc and Ph.D. students worldwide, and as a guide to floricultural scientists & professors. Looking into its coverage and application, this book will work as a most remarkable guide to commercial and enthusiastic growers of cut flower crops worldwide.

Ornamental Crops by Johan Van Huylenbroeck Pdf

Ornamental plants are economically important worldwide. Both growers and consumers ask continuously for new, improved varieties. Although there are numerous ornamental species, ornamental plant breeding and plant breeding research is mainly limited to some major species. This book focuses on the recent advances and achievements in ornamental plant breeding. The first part of the book focuses on plant traits and breeding techniques that are typical for ornamental plants. Eminent research groups write these general chapters. For plant traits like flower colour or shape, breeding for disease resistance and vase or shelf life are reviewed. General technical plant breeding chapters deal with mutation breeding, polyploidisation, in vitro breeding techniques and new developments in molecular techniques. The second part of the book consists of crop-specific chapters. Here all economically major ornamental species are handled together with selected representative species from different plant groups (cut flowers, pot plants, woody ornamental plants). In these crop-specific chapters, the main focus is on recent scientific achievements over the last decade.

Ornamental Crop Production Technology by Supriya Kumar Bhattacharjee Pdf

Floriculture Is A Fast Expanding Dynamic Industry. Production Technology Has Advanced With The Efficient Use Of Plant Resources Such As Water, Fertilizers, Pesticides; And Modification Of Microclimate That Surrounds The Plants As Per Need During Various Stages Of Growth, Development And Flowering. Protected Cultivation Provides An Excellent Facility For Controlled Cultivation Of High Value Crops. Hence, Polyhouses Are Made With All Modern Facilities Including U.V. Stabilized Cladding Film, Heating, Cooling, Humidification, Drip Irrigation And Fertigation Systems. The Structure And Technology Are, However, Location And Crop Specific. Moreover, With The Adoption Of Improved Production Technologies; A Number Of Diseases, Pests And Weeds Affecting Ornamental Crops Are Becoming A Serious Handicap In Their Economic Production. Indiscriminate Application Of Pesticides Has Lead To Pest Resistance And Resurgence As Well As Adverse Effect On Ornamental Crops And Also On Flora And Fauna In The Ecosystem. In View Of This An Attempt Has Been Made In This Book To Provide A Wealth Of Fascinating Information In 13 Extensive Review Chapters Like Principles, Technology And Methodology Of F1-Hybrid Seed Production; Micropropogation Of Ornamental Crops; Mericloning Of Orchids; Greenhouses And Glass Houses, Design Of Green Houses, Cladding Material, Shade Nets And Ventilation, Economics Of Polyhouse Cultivation; Insects, Pests, Diseases And Nematodes Of Ornamental Plants And Their Management; Weed Management; And Phytosanitary Requirements For Import And Export Of Floriculture Products And Planting Material. This Publication Will Be Of Immense Value And Serve The Interests Of Scientists, Teachers, Students, Policy Makers, Amateur And Commercial Flower Growers.

Flower Crops by A. K. Singh Pdf

Flower growing, once used to be a gardener's activity has today transformed into an astounding business. In India also, being an integral part of our rich heritage and culture, flower crops have become source of income as highly remunerative crops. Concerted efforts are being made in the country to boost the productivity, quality and export worthiness of several floricultural crops. With the changing trends and constant urge for new innovative products, this is imperative to have information about new potential crops with novel developed varieties and improved production technology. The worldwide interest in floriculture has also forced the agriculture universities and colleges for their perusal on teaching the emerging stream floriculture. Hence, the present book is a result of good compilation of recent advances in floriculture by the author. The publication entitled "Flower Crops: Cultivation and Management" specifies the practices and problems in growing flower crops along with entire description of crops and potential varieties.

Molluscs as Crop Pests by G. M. Barker Pdf

Mollusc species currently constitute a major threat to sustainable agriculture. This threat is associated with cultivation of new crops, intensification of agricultural production systems and the spread through human trade and travel of species adapted to these modified environments. In some crops their significance is only now becoming apparent with the decline in the importance of other pest groups which can be effectively controlled. The book focuses on: toxicology of chemicals; deployment of molluscicides in baits; specific crop situations worldwide; current pest status of mollusc species and progress towards development of solutions.

Introduction to Floriculture by Roy A. Larson Pdf

Introduction to Floriculture provides an introduction to commercial floriculture, containing information on major and minor greenhouse and field crops, and includes potted plants and cut flowers. The book is organized into two parts. Part I on cut flowers discusses the history and propagation of chrysanthemums, carnations, roses, snapdragons, orchids, gladiolus, and minor cut crops. Part II on potted plants includes bulbous plants, azaleas, pot mums, African violets, poinsettias, and Easter lilies. This book was written for students who have been exposed to a sufficient number of biology courses to acquaint them with many of the terms and plant processes discussed in the text. It would be beneficial if they have also taken a course in greenhouse management or are taking one concurrently with their floriculture course. The book can be used by commercial growers who constantly seek more information to enable them to realize maximum gain from the investments of labor, time, and capitol they have placed in this challenging field.

Virus Diseases of Ornamental Plants by S. K. Raj,Rajarshi Kumar Gaur,Zhimin Yin Pdf

This edited book elucidates the evolution of plant virus, genomic structure, diversity, plant-virus interaction, subcellular movement etc. The book reviews the biological machineries which allow the emergence of virus populations adapted by plant. The main objective of this book is the demonstration of a clear synergistic effect of plant viruses, an effect that was unexpectedly as important as applied alone. Ornamental plants are very popular and economically important worldwide. The international market of ornamentals is constantly expanding. Viruses and viroids can significantly reduce both decorative value and quality of propagated material of ornamentals. Due to the wide range of ornamental plant species and cultivars and their wide geographical distribution, the diversity of viruses that infect them is also high. The new emerging viruses are the causal agent for the economic loss of many important ornamental plants. Therefore, this book also adds value to current knowledge of virus stress response in ornamental plants and will provide the groundwork necessary for building future strategies for product enhancement. This book is of interest to teachers, researchers, capacity builders and policymakers. It can serve as additional reading material for undergraduate and graduate students of virology, agriculture and plant sciences.
