1. Integrates the international norms for planning and designing of
Healthcare Facilities into the developing country setting. 2. A
useful read for MD, PhD, DNB, MHA, MBA students of Hospital
Administration along with Hospital Engineers, Architects and
Project Consultants. 3. Explains the broad aspects of design
interpretation that are essential for meeting the functional and
cultural requirements, and limited resources of developing
countries.
This book emphasizes on cutting-edge next-generation smart plant
breeding approaches for maximizing the use of genomic resources
generated by high-throughput genomics in the post-genomic era.
Through this book the readers would learn about the recent
development in the genomic approaches such as genotype by
sequencing (GBS) for genomic analysis (SNPs, Single Nucleotide
Polymorphism), whole-genome re-sequencing (WGRS) and RNAseq for
transcriptomic analysis (DEGs, Differentially Expressed Genes). To
maximize the genetic gains in the cereal/food crops, the book
covers topics on transgenic breeding, genome editing,
high-throughput phenotyping, reliable/precision phenotyping and
genomic information-based analysis. In the era of climate change
and the ever-increasing population, food security and nutritional
security are the primary concern of plant breeders, growers, and
policymakers to address the UN’s sustainable development goals.
Chapters of this book cohere around these goals and covers
techniques such as (QTL mapping, association studies, candidate
gene identification), omics, RNAi [through micro RNA (miRNA), small
interfering RNA (siRNA) and artificial micro RNA (amiRNA)]. It also
covers other genomic techniques like antisense technology, genome
editing (CRISPR/cas9, base editing) and epigenomics that assist the
crop improvement programmes to fulfil the UNs sustainable
development goals. It explores the influence of rapidly available
sequencing data assisting in the next generation breeding
programmes. This volume is a productive resource for the students,
researchers, scientists, teachers, public and private sector
stakeholders involved in the genetic enhancement of cereal crops.

This book dispenses a comprehensive coverage of up-to-date account
of genomics and genome editing enriched smart plant breeding
approaches for enhancing genetic gains in vegetable crops in the
post-genomics era. The main focus of the present volume is to
illuminate the applications of new techniques evolved in the
post-genomics era. The techniques covered are high-throughput
sequencing of DNA and RNA, genome editing, epigenetics and
epigenomics, genotype by sequencing (GBS), QTL-seq and RNA-seq for
transcriptome analysis. Vegetables are the important component of
healthy diet, source of energy and hold a promising position in
building up a strong immunity. Zero hunger and attaining the food
and nutritional security is the top priority of United Nations
development goals. Smart breeding of food and vegetable crops to
fight the challenges ahead in sustainable manner by keeping the
harmony with nature is an important approach to fulfill the United
Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN-SDGs). This edited book
highlights the modern results in smart vegetable breeding in the
post genomics era and forecasts crucial areas of future needs. It
is an important reference for the, readers, students, researchers,
scientists in academia and research industries to provide them
comprehensive information of innovative approaches for crop
improvement in the post-genomics era and in the era of and climate
change. Even the readers, academia, social activists, and others
fond of reading will get a fair idea of journey travelled so far
and future roadmap for fighting the challenges ahead to meet the
sustainable development goals.
Sudden spurt in number of cases of harmful side effects of
synthetic drugs reported have created a radical change in
perception and interest of people; creating a favorable tilt
towards Global Trade in Herbal Medicine. WHO in one its recent
publications states that about eighty per cent of the world
population relies on traditional medicines, largely plant based,
for their primary health care needs. It estimates the present size
of global market for herbal based medicines to be approx. US $ 60
billion and projects, as witnessed by present trend, that same is
expected to touch the volume of US $ 5 trillion by 2050. The
monograph contains detailed facts and their analysis in context to
market overview, global trade, WTO and its impact on herbal
medicine trade, regulatory provisions and suggestions on
promotional strategies for export of herbal medicines in global
perspective. The same has also been analyzed and presented in
Indian context, supported by a quantum of data both primary &
secondary] presented in tables, besides deliberation on challenges
and constraints being faced by Indian Medicinal Plant Industries
and possible strategies to overcome them.
