This book entitled Pteridology in the New Millennium is dedicated to Professor B.K. Nayar, founder of the pteridology laboratory of the National Botanical Research India, Lucknow, India, on the eve of the Golden Jubilee Year October 2002 to October 2003 of the NBRI, a national laboratory under CSIR, New Delhi. This volume is a collection of research papers on pteridology covering a wide spectrum of various aspects of pteridological research from prominent scientists throughout the world. In editing this volume we have made an attempt to highlight the current significance of some of the emerging fields of pteridological research in various communities across the globe. The book includes thirty-five chapters mainly covering topics on systematics, morphology, anatomy and cytology, ecology and floristics, phytoremediation and economic utility, reproductive biology, tissue culture and Paleobotany.
Theses on any subject submitted by the academic libraries in the UK and Ireland.

This book critically reviews advances in our understanding of the biology of vascular epiphytes since Andreas Schimper’s 1888 seminal work. It addresses all aspects of their biology, from anatomy and physiology to ecology and evolution, in the context of general biological principles. By comparing epiphytes with non-epiphytes throughout, it offers a valuable resource for researchers in plant sciences and related disciplines. A particular strength is the identification of research areas that have not received the attention they deserve, with conservation being a case in point. Scientists have tended to study pristine systems, but global developments call for information on epiphytes in human-disturbed systems and the response of epiphytes to global climate change.
The central theme of Green Plants, first published in 2000, is the astonishing diversity of forms found in the plant kingdom, from the simplicity of prokaryotic algae to the myriad complexities of flowering plants. The book is arranged according to generally accepted classification schemes, beginning with algae (prokaryotic and eukaryotic) and moving through mosses, liverworts, fern allies, ferns and gymnosperms to flowering plants. Copiously illustrated throughout, it provides a concise account of all algae and land plants, with information on topics from cellular structure to life cycles and reproduction. The authors maintain a refreshingly cautious approach in discussions of possible phylogenetic relationships and include newly emerging information on features of plants known only as fossils. This edition has been completely updated to reflect current views on the origin of the major groups of plants, providing a resource for students of botany, and for researchers needing a comprehensive reference to the plant kingdom.
2nd ed. of v. 1 updates the original volume and expands the range of review essays presented. It is intended to provide a primary source of information about plants in Australia from the point of view of taxonomic botany. To be used as a ready reference to the major literature on the Australian flora and includes a glossary of botanical terms and a key to families of Australian flowering plants.
