The poultry industry has become a very significant element of the agricultural sector. In the last few decades, the industry has encountered several challenges, including avian influenza outbreaks in Asia. This book highlights various diseases that must be controlled in order for the industry to thrive.
By their nature, pesticidal substances are biologically active; they are capable of causing disturbances in the vital activity of living organisms of plant and animal origin. However, the degree of disruption is different due to the selectivity of its action, or selective toxicity. This book offers coverage of pesticides and crop disease control.
Rapid viral mutations cause difficulties in the progress of effective antiviral drugs and vaccines, such as resistant mutations usually seem from weeks to months after treatment begins. Major theoretical models, including the quasi-species model, are discussed in detail in this book, as viral quasi-species.
As third world countries develop, the disposal of solid and hazardous waste is becoming an increasingly important issue. This book explores how solid and hazardous waste can be best managed in developing countries.
