Molecular Plant Taxonomy

Plant taxonomy is an ancient discipline facing new challenges with the current availability of a vast array of molecular approaches which allow reliable genealogy-based classifications. Although the primary focus of plant taxonomy is on the delimitation of species, molecular approaches also provide a better understanding of evolutionary processes, a particularly important issue for some taxonomic …

Ungulate Taxonomy

A group of special interest to mammalogists, taxonomists, and systemicists, ungulates have proven difficult to classify. This comprehensive review of the taxonomic relationships of artiodactyls and perissodactyls brings forth new evidence in order to propose a theory of ungulate taxonomy. With this straightforward volume, Colin Groves and the late Peter Grubb cut through previous assumptions …

Molecular Taxonomy of Fishes with Emphasis on Genetic Fragmentation

DNA barcode assisted Molecular Taxonomy for species identification aided us to employee this technique in discrimination of fishes from Narmada river basin, one of the longest river of India. During our study we found high genetic diversity between individuals isolated by barriers (dams/waterfalls) this facilities us to study, how barriers contribute to the fragmentation of …

Nematodes Associated with Guava and Litchi Plantations

The present work includes a comprehensive study on soil & plant parasitic nematodes belonging to the orders Dorylaimida & Tylenchida associated with guava & Litchi plantations in India. Nematodes are considered as one of the major constraints in agriculture & horticulture allover the world & are responsible for yield losses of guava & litchi. The …

Metadata for Content Management

Metadata for Content Management helps digital content managers think in terms of organization and a practical application of metadata principles.Author David Diamond (DAM Survival Guide) avoids theoretical and academic discussions, instead providing real-world guidance to those designing or redesigning content management or digital asset management systems. Learn how taxonomy and metadata work within digital systems, …

Deleuze's Cinema Books

This cineosis is like a Russian doll or a Chinese box - proliferating levels of regimes, domains, images and signs. This book is the first to fully explicate/unearth the taxonomies; explore every concept; and read a film for each cinematic sign. It maps the Cinema books for newcomers to Deleuzian film studies and opens up …

Diplodocus (Marsh)

Marine Algae

This book is divided into three thematic areas. The first covers a revision of the taxonomy of algae, based on the algae portal, as well as the general aspects of biology and the methodologies used in this branch of marine biology. The second subject area focuses on the use of algae in environmental assessment, with …

Taxonomy of Australian Mammals

Taxonomy of Australian Mammals utilises the latest morphometric and genetic research to develop the most up to date and comprehensive revision of the taxonomy of Australian mammals undertaken to date. It proposes significant changes to the higher ranks of a number of groups and recognises several genera and species that have only very recently been …

The Poverty of the Linnaean Hierarchy

The question of whether biologists should continue to use the Linnaean hierarchy has been a hotly debated issue. Invented before the introduction of evolutionary theory, Linnaeus's system of classifying organisms is based on outdated theoretical assumptions, and is thought to be unable to provide accurate biological classifications. Marc Ereshefsky argues that biologists should abandon the …
