Fossil Treasures of the Geology Museum
Daniel B Thomas, Jeffrey H Robinson, and Daphne E Lee · University of Otago
Tens of thousands of iconic fossils are housed in the collections of the Geology Museum at Ōtākou Whakaihu Waka – University of Otago, in Ōtepoti Dunedin, Aotearoa New Zealand. Used for teaching and research for over a century, here we offer a close look at some of the most special fossil treasures in the collections.

Introduction to Biotechnology Laboratory Manual
Donna Barron · Hudson Valley Community College
Regardless if you work at a biotechnology company or in an academic research lab, keeping a lab notebook is a requirement. The Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) handbook states, "if it isn't written down, it wasn't done." The lab notebook is considered a legal document and can be used in court to settle patent disputes or to report a specialist’s finding in paternity suits or criminal cases. Often times, the lab notebook is used as a starting point for other scientists who work in the lab.

Phylogenetic Comparative Methods
Luke Harmon · University of Idaho
Evolution is happening all around us. In many cases – lately, due to technological advances in molecular biology – scientists can now describe the evolutionary process in exquisite detail. We understand the genetics, development, and biomechanical processes that link changes in a Galapagos finches’ diet to the shape of their bill. And, in some cases, we can watch as one species splits to become two.

Plant Breeding Methods
Walter R. Fehr and Walter P. Suza · Iowa State University
This text has been compiled to provide an overview of how plant breeders develop cultivars of plant species. The methods that breeders use depend directly on the type of cultivar used to produce a commercial crop. he four most common types of cultivars are (a) clonal cultivars (b) synthetic cultivars (c) pure-line cultivars and (d) hybrid cultivars. These types of cultivars will be discussed throughout the book, alongside review questions for self-study.

Applied Ecology
Wikipedia · Wikibooks
It is intended that this book should contain a body of knowledge about the use of ecological theory and principles to solve problems associated with the intensive human use of the environment. It is beyond our capacity to return Earth to a primeval state, but what we can do is build a technological ‘ark’ to retain as much ecological integrity as possible. To achieve this, many aspects of ecology have to be applied to manage conservation systems.

Classical Genetics (Khan Academy)
LibreTexts
Have you ever been told that you have your mother's eyes or grandfather's nose? Learn why traits run in families and how they're passed on. We'll look at Mendel's model of inheritance and learn how it's been revised and extended in the past 150 years.

Principles of Cultivar Development (Fehr and Suza)
Walter R. Fehr and Walter P. Suza · Iowa State University
Principles of Cultivar Development is intended to help you learn how to be a successful manager of a cultivar development program. In this text, you will apply the principles learned in Plant Breeding Methods to design a breeding program that makes effective use of available resources and alternative breeding strategies. By the end of this volume, readers will be able to describe the process for developing clonal, pure-line, hybrid, and synthetic cultivars.

Botany Lab Manual
Maria Morrow · College of the Redwoods
As a course, botany is the study of plants and many other groups in the tree of life. With regard to organisms, this course begins with the Cyanobacteria, winds through several groups of unrelated organisms that were all once categorized as fungi, picks apart pieces of the "protista," and finally emerges into Kingdom Plantae.

Introduction to Ecology
Sara Kappus · Evergreen Valley College
This book is written for a general education courses in Ecology (Biology 63 - Ecology at Evergreen Valley College). This book introduces Ecology, the branch of biology that deals with the relations of living organisms, including humans, to one another and to their physical surroundings. This book also covers key concepts in science and biology, that serve as the foundation for understanding more advanced ecological concepts. Included throughout is an underlying theme emphasizing how ecological r

Crop Adaptation and Improvement for Drought-Prone Environments
Ndjido A. Kane, Daniel Foncéka, and Timothy J. Dalton · Kansas State University
This book focuses on three important elements in the development of cereal and legume crops in semi-arid West Africa. The first section illustrates the socioeconomic factors that affect the food system for these crops with an overview of crop production and consumption in the region. The second section addresses the state of the art of phenotyping and the modeling of crop adaptation to dryland farming systems. The third section investigates the genetic diversity and improvement of dryland crops.
