Biodiversity is a key factor in maintaining balance of nature and it also provides a large number of goods and services which sustain human lives. Rich biodiversity is wealth of any nation. The present volume "Biodiversity of Horticultural Crops (Vol. VI)" has 14 chapters authored by 36 scientists of various institutes which covers various aspects of biodiversity. It carries two preambles one on Biological Diversity Act-2002 and National Biodiversity Authority-2003 and second on Delhi Declaration on Agrobiodiversity Management. The chapter 1 and 2 carry information on biological diversity and assessment of endemism and biovarsity among 34 hotspots of the world. Chapter 3 to 14 deal with biodiversity in underutilized fruits of arid region, acid lime, banana in Tripura, pear, cluster bean, kale, onion, ridge gourd, large cardamom, cocoa, African oil palm and Genomics of oil palm. It is hoped that this volume will be interest of students, teachers, researchers, ecoplanners, botanists, agriculturists, policy makers and all amateurs and professional having concern with horticultural crops.

A Continuation of Volume 1, Biodiversity in Horticultural Crops, Volume 2 elaborate centres of origin, distribution, uses, description and about all crops based systematies of amaranths, drumstick, radishes, tropical cauliflower, jack fruit, grapes, cocoa tamarind, Indian gooseberry, orchids and temple trees. Three exclusive chapters on centres of origin and diversity of horticultural crops, conservation on biodiversity and sacred groves for biodiversity conservation makes Volume 2 unique and distinct knowledge on origin has become focused in Geographical Indications and Intellectual Property Rights (GI and IPR) regimes giving right to communities for the uses of plants and traditional knowledge (TK) In the Post Convention of Biodiversity (CBD) are ownership of Genetic Verified existing in places of origin shifted from global right to sovereign right of that country. The CBD was signed by 189 nations at the Earth Summit in Brazil on 5th July, 1992 and commonto Zones on 29th December, 1993. In 2002, two conferences of the Parties of the Convention on Biological Biodiversity (COPCBO) adopted the target to achieves a signigicant reduction on the current rates of biodiversity loss at the global, regional and national level as a centrifugation to poverty alleviation and to the fit of all life on earth by 2010. The present volume carries 14 chapters contributed by 32 working scientist from 14 States Agricultural Universities and Central Research Institutes.

Sustainable Horticulture, Volume 1: Diversity, Production, and Crop Improvements is part of a two-volume compendium that addresses the most important topics facing horticulture around the world today. Volume 1, on Diversity, Production, and Crop Improvement, outlines the contemporary trends in sustainable horticulture research, covering such topics as crop diversity, species variability and conservation strategies, production technology, tree architecture management, plant propagation and nutrition management, organic farming, and new dynamics in breeding and marketing of horticulture crops. Sections include: Genetic Resources & Biodiversity Conservation Production & Marketing of Horticulture Crops Crop Improvement & Biotechnology Together with Volume 2: Food, Health, and Nutrition, this two-volume compendium presents an abundance of new research on sustainable horticulture that will be valuable for a broad audience, including students of horticulture, faculty and instructors, scientists, agriculturists, government and nongovernment organizations, and other industry professionals.

This is the first volume in the new multi-volume set, Global Biodiversity. Each volume in this series aims to provide insightful information on the biodiversity of selected nations in particular regions. The volumes summarize the available data on both wild and cultivated plants, wild and domesticated animals, and microbes of the different nations. Global Biodiversity, Volume 1: Selected Countries in Asia focuses on selected countries of Asia, providing an abundance of biodiversity information on Afghanistan, Bangladesh, India, Indonesia, Iran, Iraq, Japan, Lebanon, Malaysia, Mongolia, Myanmar, Nepal, and Vietnam. The first chapter in the volume provides an informative overview of what is biodiversity along with biogeographic classifications. It provides explanations of biodiversity patterns and species number; biodiversity conservation, protection, and international commitments and cooperation; biodiversity threats and drivers of change (such as human population growth, climate change, land use change); and the economics of biodiversity as well.

Genetic erosion is the loss of genetic diversity within a species. It can happen very quickly, due to catastrophic events, or changes in land use leading to habitat loss. But it can also occur more gradually and remain unnoticed for a long time. One of the main causes of genetic erosion is the replacement of local varieties by modern varieties. Other causes include environmental degradation, urbanization, and land clearing through deforestation and brush fires. In order to conserve biodiversity in plants, it is important to targets three independent levels that include ecosystems, species and genes. Genetic diversity is important to a species’ fitness, long-term viability, and ability to adapt to changing environmental conditions. Chapters in this book are written by leading geneticists, molecular biologists and other specialists on relevant topics on genetic erosion and conservation genetic diversity in plants. This divisible set of two volumes deals with a broad spectrum of topics on genetic erosion, and approaches to biodiversity conservation in crop plants and trees. Volume 1 deals with indicators and prevention of genetic erosion, while volume 2 covers genetic diversity and erosion in a number of plants species. These two volumes will also be useful to botanists, biotechnologists, environmentalists, policy makers, conservationists, and NGOs working to manage genetic erosion and biodiversity.

Native Plant Agriculture (NPA) is the implementing of edible native plants and native animals as the basis of a primarily perennial agricultural system while mimicking native plant communities in format. To help reduce greenhouse gases in the atmosphere our current cropland needs to shift from annuals to perennials; tree, shrub, and herbaceous crops. Native Plant Agriculture meets this environmental need through native plants to simultaneously address a second issue of biodiversity decline.Cropland is the most biologically dead zone outside of the concrete dominated landscapes of downtown areas of cities which footprint wise are a drop in the bucket in comparison. Without the cessation of this corn/soy based annual crop system, even if all other non-agricultural sectors ended fossil fuel emissions, we would still fail to meet the necessary emission reductions to prevent catastrophic climate change. Because of biodiversity decline, the "insect apocalypse", and climate change; it isn't a matter of if we should supplant the system, it is a matter of what we should supplant the system with. Restoring the evolutionary relationships of native plants and their associated fauna on cropland directly addresses ecosystem displacement/habitat loss, skyrocketing of greenhouse emissions, and the resulting climate destabilization and fauna population crashes and extinctions primarily caused by agriculture and invasive plants. Volume 1 features 35 different profiles on native plant crops and their associated fauna, design method for the different formats of NPA, highlights of the native fauna connections of NPA, an explanation of how land use efficiency holds the greatest potential for biodiversity recovery, food production increases, and climate change mitigation.
