Plant-Pathogen Interactions: Methods and Protocols, Second Edition
expands upon the first edition with current, detailed protocols for
the study of plant pathogen genome sequences. It contains new
chapters on techniques to help identify and characterize effectors
and to study their impacts on host immunity and their roles in
pathogen biology. Additional chapters focus on protocols to
identify avirulence and resistance genes, investigate the roles of
effector targets and other defence-associated proteins in plant
immunity. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular
Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their
respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents,
step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols and tips on
troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Authoritative and
cutting-edge, Plant-Pathogen Interactions: Methods and Protocols,
Second Edition seeks to aid scientists in the further study of
plant immunity.

Written in 1699 and based on the recollections of survivors, "The
Peach Blossom Fan "is a grand historical play about the last days
of the Ming dynasty as it fell to the invading Manchus. With
compelling vividness, K'ung re-creates confrontations between
loyalists and those who sell out to the newest master; nostalgic
scenes of dalliance in riverside pavilions; desperate stands on
battlements; and rituals of commemoration for the lost empire. Here
are gallant generals and sycophantic ministers, court musicians and
singing girls, and the love of a talented scholar and a beautiful
courtesan. Immensely popular in its own time, "The Peach Blossom
Fan" continues to be performed and has been adapted into films,
operas, and modern theater pieces. This lively translation has been
out of print for almost four decades.

This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the
original. Due to its age, it may contain imperfections such as
marks, notations, marginalia and flawed pages. Because we believe
this work is culturally important, we have made it available as
part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting
the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions
that are true to the original work.
Over the last decade there has been a rapid development of
molecular techniques, with an increasing range of instrumentation
now available. The development of accompanying reference literature
has not kept pace with technological advances and this poses
significant challenges to the analyst. Essentials of Nucleic Acid
Analysis sets out to guide the analyst through the steps needed to
obtain good quality results in DNA analysis. The underlying
principles for achieving this goal were formulated by LGC (formerly
the Laboratory of the Government Chemist) as the six principles for
ensuring valid analytical measurement, which are detailed in the
introduction. The reader is also provided with guidelines for
method validation and quality control of established and emerging
DNA measurement techniques. The authors of each chapter are
practitioners of the art of DNA analysis in areas where the quality
of the result is critical. Technical details and examples of
application of key techniques in nucleic acid analysis are provided
while highlighting best practice, available standards and practical
advice on improving measurement quality. This book provides an
indispensable handbook and premier reference for those working in
the widely varying areas and specifically in the fields of food
analysis and forensic applications.
