Genetic Diversity of Coronaviruses (Volume 1) provides a comprehensive analysis of the genetic mutations and host interactions across three major coronaviruses—SARS-CoV, MERS-CoV, and SARS-CoV-2. This volume explores the evolutionary history, mutations, and emerging variants of these viruses, with a focus on understanding how they adapt to different hosts. The book is organized into three parts: Part I covers SARS-CoV, detailing its genetic mutations, host genetic diversity, and new variants. Part II focuses on MERS-CoV, offering insights into mutations and host adaptations. Part III addresses SARS-CoV-2, discussing its evolving variants and the role of host proteins. The book also discusses the connections between coronaviruses and neurological, epigenetic, and AI-related issues. Key Features: - In-depth analysis of genetic mutations in coronaviruses. - Exploration of host genetic diversity and virus adaptation. - Insight into emerging variants of SARS-CoV, MERS-CoV, and SARS-CoV-2. - Examination of host proteins' role in viral infections. - Discussion on the impact of AI and epigenetics on coronavirus research.

A Treatise on Ecological Science provides a fresh perspective on modern ecological thought by exploring topics often overlooked in traditional ecological texts. The book opens with a discussion of Network Ecology, unraveling the interconnectedness of ecosystems, and transitions to the intricate relationship between biodiversity and climate change. It further addresses Human Ecology, highlighting its central role in shaping ecological discourse, and explores the principles of Industrial Ecology, emphasizing sustainable practices in industrial systems. The final chapter critically examines the Sustainable Development Goals, offering a balanced view of their benefits and limitations. Designed to bridge gaps between ecology, industry, and global sustainability, this book serves as an insightful resource for students, researchers, and policymakers interested in contemporary ecological science and its practical applications. Key Features: - Examines underexplored topics in ecological science. - Connects biodiversity, climate change, and human ecology. - Highlights the role of industrial ecology in sustainability. - Provides a critical analysis of Sustainable Development Goals.

Mind Maps in Clinical Biochemistry is an essential test preparation guide aimed specifically at students studying clinical biochemistry as part of their medical, nursing, or biomedical science courses and for candidates preparing for postgraduate entrance and board examinations. The book presents a series of comprehensive case- based learning modules designed to address key teaching points in clinical biochemistry in the context of real clinical experience. Students can begin to understand routine clinical cases by reading biochemical results in the context of a clinical history, examination findings and other diagnostic information. The content also equips readers with the information to propose a differential diagnosis, a treatment plan and a prognosis at later stages. Key Features · Concept maps for basic and applied clinical biochemistry · Structured outline for clinical cases including history with lab findings, clinical correlations and clinical evaluation · Answers and explanations to facilitate learning · References for further reading · OSPE questions for self-assessment and exam preparation

Plant transformation technology has played a critical role in advancing biotechnology and fundamental research and evolved as a science. This book describes the breakthrough technologies in all aspects of plant transformation in the last 27 years, which have been contributed by the world leading experts in the field. This e-book is one of the first books that covers critical technologies in all aspects of plant transformation to plant biologists and molecular biologists from industrial, academic and governmental organizations. It should greatly benefit postdoctoral associates and graduate and undergraduate students in the plant biology community.
