The correct design, analysis and interpretation of plant science
experiments is imperative for continued improvements in
agricultural production worldwide. The enormous number of design
and analysis options available for correctly implementing,
analysing and interpreting research can be overwhelming. SAS (R) is
the most widely used statistical software in the world and SAS (R)
OnDemand for Academics is now freely available for academic
institutions. This is a user-friendly guide to statistics using SAS
(R) OnDemand for Academics, ideal for facilitating the design and
analysis of plant science experiments. It presents the most
frequently used statistical methods in an easy-to-follow and
non-intimidating fashion, and teaches the appropriate use of SAS
(R) within the context of plant science research. This book: -
Covers experimental designs and data analysis protocols - Is
presented as a how-to guide with many examples - Includes freely
downloadable data sets - Examines key topics such as merging data
frames, multivariate analysis and linear regression Authored by an
experienced teacher of applied plant science statistics, this book
assumes no prior background in statistics and guides users through
the appropriate methodologies in research. It is an invaluable tool
for advanced undergraduate and graduate students, in addition to
researchers, extension consultants, faculty and technicians.
Understanding the physiology of plants is fundamental to
horticultural studies and practice. Aimed at undergraduates, this
major textbook covers applied aspects of physiology related to
horticultural crops. The author discusses specific physiological
processes in relation to horticultural management, maintaining a
focus throughout on how horticultural practices influence plant
productivity and quality. Principles of Horticultural Physiology
begins by guiding students through the basics of plant physiology;
plant anatomy and plant classification, before covering plant
hormones, growth and development, and factors related to the
external environment including water, light, temperature and soil.
Greenhouse culture is also discussed, as well as practical
management techniques including seeding, pruning and grafting. The
book concludes with real-world horticultural considerations of
harvesting crops, packaging and transportation, postharvest
physiology and marketing plant products, as well as a fascinating
chapter on plants and human nutrition. One of the text's chief
virtues is the accessible way the author conveys sometimes complex
information in an easy to follow style. An ideal resource for
undergraduate students of horticulture, this book will act as a
guide throughout the entire course.
