The men and women who produce our food; farmer, herders, fishermen, indigenous people and forest dwellers are hit the hardest by the consequences of climate change. So, bringing together experts from all walks of life, this comprehensive book provides the authoritative scientific information on importance of biodiversity and its relation to crop improvement in the context of climate change. Climate change has negative impacts on soil, air, water, indigenous people, socio economic factors and all biological diversity, and thereby events increasing stress for agricultural and horticultural crops. Therefore, harnessing crops against abiotic stress like drought, heat and salinity is an essential task for plant breeder, agronomist and horticulturist. To make the book comprehensive, chapters discuss; Attached algal life forms of the high altitudes flooded rice fields of eastern Himalayas, Ethno-dermatological practices of plants species among the tea tribes of upper Assam, crop improvement of orange flesh sweet potato of Manipur (Kangleipak), Impact of climate change on biodiversity, Laboratory evaluation of bait insecticide combination against fruit fly, Biosynthesis and biodegradation of cyanide in nature, Resource conservation for socioeconomic development in North-eastern India, Artificial intelligence for preserving biodiversity, Decentralized governance; forest and land allotment for ST s and Traditional forest dwellers, Physiological interventions for yield and quality in tropical fruits. It also suggests a vision of new direction and partnerships that are expected to evolve in this 2019-2020 regimes. This book is an essential resource for practicing horticulture, plant breeding, biotechnology, socio-economic study, ethno-botany, taxonomy and environmental biology at Universities, Government agencies, NGOs and Industry. It should be also be use to researchers, scientist, teacher and student of Agriculture, Horticulture, Life Sciences and Social Sciences engaged in crop improvement works, socio-economical studies and conservation biologists.

Rice (Dhan, Chabal) belongs to the genus Oryza (Family- poaceae, 2n=24) is the staple food for more than half of the world's human population. It is consumed as staple food for about 3.5 billion people across the whole world. Genus Oryza consist of two cultivated species O. sativa and O. glaberrima, and 23 wild species. Among the two cultivated speices O. sativa was dominated in Asian as well as Europe, South America region and O. glaberrima was mostly concentrated into the West African countries only. The Asian rice O. sativa was evolved from wild perennial O. rufipogon and wild annual O. nivaraand wild progenitors of O. glaverrima was O. longistaminata and O. breviligulata. According to Normille (2004) Oryza sativa was first domesticated between 8000-15000 years ago in India and China and river valleys of Yangtze, Mekon rice could be the primary Centre of origin of O. sativa while delta of Niger river in Africa is the primary Centre of origin of diversity of O. glaberrima. Among Asian countries rice production as well as consumption is highest whereas in Sub-Saharan Africa, Caribbean and Latin America, rice consumption is steadily increasing. Rice alone provides about 50% of the dietary caloric supply in around 520 million poor people in Asiatic countries. Rice is grown in 160.6 million hectares across the world with the total production of 738.20 million tones having productivity 3424.41 kg/ha (FAO, 2015). India is the Centre of origin of Rice and it is also the second largest producer of rice just after China. Thousands of ecospecies of rice had been evolved in India from the down of crop domestications. The ecospecies of japonica, indica and javanica have been generally recognized in O. sativa. Numerous rice landraces had been evolved due to random mutations and selection by the ancient farmers since centuries of rice domestications. India has a vast agroclimatic environmental conditions which gives suitable platform for tremendous genetic diversity. National Bureau of Plant Genetic Resources (NBPGR) and International rice research institute (IRRI) have been recorded and maintained more than 60,000 rice landraces of Indian subcontinent still now. India is popular for its native wealth of rice genetic resources and among these the large number of indigenous short grained, scented varieties cultivated in different pocket of various states of eastern India. Chhattisgarh popularly known as "Rice Bowl of India" and two other states namely Odisha and West Bengal have a significant amount o.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Ethnic varieties of rice are the nature's gift to the human civilization. West Bengal state of India is a home land of thousands of folk rice varieties from time immemorial. Ancient marginal farmers of Bengal are conserving, cultiva…ting, developing and preserving these varieties from the prehistoric times. Before green revolution, folk varieties were the only source of rice. After the introduction of modern hybrid varieties the number of folk varieties are drastically falling down from the agricultural fields. Folk varieties reside of numerous spectacular agronomic characters which are mostly absent in so called 'high yielding varieties'. Now time has come to cultivate and conserve these folk varieties again as hybrid varieties failed to perform their best, due to changing climatic condition. Folk rice varieties consist of important genetic component which may be used for the development of stress resistance (salt, drought, flood, cold, pest etc.), and future food security. The authors are grateful to West Bengal Biodiversity Board as they have taken the initiative to conserve and cultivate these folk rice varieties of Bengal and their help to do so. 168 pp. Englisch.
