Plant Enzyme Systems and Their Biochemical and Environmental Interactions offers a comprehensive exploration of the pivotal role plant enzymes play in sustaining life, driving metabolic pathways, and enabling plants to thrive under both favourable and adverse conditions.
With the continued implementation of new equipment and new concepts and methods, such as hydroponics and soilless practices, crop growth has improved and become more efficient.
Plants are continuously exposed to different environmental stresses that negatively impact their physiology and morphology, resulting in production reduction.
With contributions from experts in various specialties, Plant-Environment Interactions discusses recent advances in cellular and molecular regulation of stress tolerance.
Given the explosive development of new molecular marker techniques over the last decade, newcomers and experts alike in the field of DNA fingerprinting will find an easy-to-follow guide to the multitude of techniques available in DNA Fingerprinting in Plants: Principles, Methods, and Applications, Second Edition.
Plant Enzyme Systems and Their Biochemical and Environmental Interactions offers a comprehensive exploration of the pivotal role plant enzymes play in sustaining life, driving metabolic pathways, and enabling plants to thrive under both favourable and adverse conditions.
Plants are continuously exposed to different environmental stresses that negatively impact their physiology and morphology, resulting in production reduction.
In the course of evolution, a great variety of root systems have learned to overcome the many physical, biochemical and biological problems brought about by soil.
Molecular Methods of Plant Analysis Concept of the Series The powerful recombinant DNA technology and related developments have had an enormous impact on molecular biology.
Endocytosis is a fundamental cellular process by means of which cells internalize extracellular and plasma membrane cargos for recycling or degradation.
Chemical reactions and interactions between molecules are commonly considered the basis of life, and thus the biochemical nature of cells and organisms is relatively well recognized.
In plant cells, the plasma membrane is a highly elaborated structure that functions as the point of exchange with adjoining cells, cell walls and the external environment.
In the last half century, because of the raising world population and because of the many environmental issues posed by the industrialization, the amount of arable land per person has declined from 0.
Development of transgenic crop plants, their utilization for improved agriculture, health, ecology and environment and their socio-political impacts are currently important fields in education, research and industries and also of interest to policy makers, social activists and regulatory and funding agencies.
Covering an area of over 130 million km2 spanning the Mediterranean, equator and tropics, the African continent features a spectacular geographic diversity.
Studies of biotic interactions of algae that involve chemical defenses or signals are currently vibrant, active components of both marine ecological and phycological research.
This volume includes treatments of systematics and related topics for both fungi and fungus-like organisms in four eukaryotic supergroups, as well as specialized chapters on nomenclature, techniques and evolution.
The aim of this volume is to merge classical concepts of plant cell biology with the recent findings of molecular studies and real-world applications in a form attractive not only to specialists in the realm of fundamental research, but also to breeders and plant producers.
