 DESCRIPTION
spacer

Perspectives in Pteridophytes is the Silver Jubliee Publication of the Indian Fern Society which was established in 1983 and is completing 25 years of its existence in 2008. Incidentally in this very year falls the 80th birthday (28th August, 1929) of Prof. Sarmukh Singh Bir, the founder of Indian Fern Society who as Secretary-Treasurer guided its affairs and steered its growth to its present status of worldwide acceptance. To him, this volume is dedicated in recognition of his outstanding research contributions to the Indian Pteridology as well as in expression of gratitude of the Indian Pteridologists for his efforts in the publication and establishment of Indian Fern Journal as its editor.

There are in all 39 contributed papers, from India and abroad, making up 'Perspectives in Pteridophytes' which cover the entire spectrum of pteridology. We believe these contributions will be of interest to researchers and teachers of honours and post-graduate classes. For convenience, the 39 papers are grouped into three sections. Section 1 comprising 3 papers concerns Fossil Ferns and Allies. Section II concerning the living Ferns and Fern Allies is sub-divided into 5 subsections, A.E. Subsection A: contains 5 papers under systematics, Taxonomy and distribution. Subsection B: contains 10 papers under ecology, biodiversity and conservation. Subsection C: contains 7 papers under morphology, phylogeny and evolution,  Subsection D: contains 6 papers under structure, development and morphogenesis. Subsection E: contains 3 papers under cytology, cytogenetics and genetics. Section III contains 5 papers under Pharmacology and Biotic interactions. The volume is preceded by a 'Preface' aimed principally at highlighting the utility of taking up research on pteridophytes, a group of vascular land plants of great antiquity, which promises to answer questions of wider relevance and also to explore them as economically viable medicinal wealth.
