The American Journal of Physiology, Vol. 17


Book Description

Excerpt from The American Journal of Physiology, Vol. 17: Edited for the American Physiological Society; No; I. Issued September 1, 1906 Unless the intrinsic nervous system in the heart walls is thrown out of function it is obvious that any stimulus that affects the muscle cells will at the same time act on the nervous tissue. In fact, the nervous tissue may be more highly excitable than the muscle cells to many forms of stimuli, so that some of the reactions of the heart to direct stimulation may be caused by the stimulation of the nervous tissue alone. It would then seem obvious that as yet we do not know the properties of the heart muscle in the vertebrates apart from the intrinsic nervous tissue. 1 It may be that the peculiarities revealed by the response of the heart to direct stimulation are due to the peculiar properties of the heart muscle, but it is also possible that they are due to the peculiar properties of the intrinsic nervous tissue in the heart and to the physiological interaction between the two tissues. Direct proofs are lacking in support of either view. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Advances in Plant Physiology (Vol. 17)


Book Description

The conception of Volume 17 of the International Treatise Series on Advances in Plant Physiology has been made possible entirely due to worthy contributions from World Scientists, teachers and researchers of eminence in unequivocal fields. Scientists are well in search of specific and complete literature pertaining to meaningful research for the holistic development of agriculture. The undertaking of this Treatise Series on Plant Physiology is to genuinely categorize the insufficiencies in view of mounting consequential researches for increasing productivity, prosperity and sustainability of agriculture through influential and developing technologies for restructuring metabolic limitations most responsive to abiotic stress factors. Certainly, our idea is to recognize innovative science of value across the broad disciplinary range of the treatise. The aim is to make stronger the distinctive outcome of conscientious research in some of the very sensitive areas of Plant Physiology-Plant Molecular Physiology/ Molecular Biology that broadly highlights the recent developments and mechanisms underlying plant resilience to changing environments. This volume brings collectively much needed twenty-one review articles by fifty-one dedicated contributors for this volume assorted into five relevant sections, viz., Section I: Abiotic Stresses & Plant Productivity: Physiological & Molecular Perspectives; Section II:Plant Trace Elements in Plant Physiology; Section III: Plant Functions Research in Agricultural Progression; Section IV: Physiological Basis of Yield; Section V: Nutraceuticals, Medicinal & Aromatic Plant Wealth. This is commendable that the Volume 17 deals with challenges of ongoing international concern over the abiotic stresses under changing climate besides vital aspects related to image-based plant phenotyping; phenomics and its application in physiological breeding; trace elements; plant functions; physiological basis of yield variation; medicinal and aromatic plants and so on. Apart from fulfilling the acute need of this kind of select edition in different volumes for research teams and scientists engaged in various facets of plant sciences research in traditional and agricultural universities, institutes and research laboratories throughout the world, it would be extremely a constructive book and a voluminous reference material for acquiring advanced knowledge by post-graduate and Ph.D. scholars in response to the innovative courses in Plant Physiology, Plant Biochemistry, Plant Molecular Biology, Plant Biotechnology, Environmental Sciences, Plant Pathology, Microbiology, Soil Science & Agricultural Chemistry, Agronomy, Horticulture, and Botany.
