Full Description
This book, resulting from an initiative of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, provides the mathematical background to model plant and microbial growth in soil. This succinct book, by a team of international experts, should appeal to a wide range of biologists, ecologists and regulators interested in the environmental consequences of biotechnology.
Contents
Modelling plant and crop growth. LEACHB - A root-zone solute transport model describing population dynamics. Modelling microbial interactions in soil: preliminary considerations and approaches. Population dynamics of micro-organisms with different life strategies. Plasmid biology and risk assessment: elements for modelling approach of plasmid-mediated gene release in soil environments. Potential for gene exchange in the photosphere: isolation and characterisation of naturally occurring plasmids. Evaluation of methods for detecting ecological effects from genetically engineered micro-organisms and microbial pest control agents in terrestrial systems. Micro-organism sampling - can we detect differences? Risk assessment. Appendix.
