In retrospect, the range of topics covered in this monograph, although forming a coherent ensemble, is so extensive that a detailed discussion could easily extend to three or four times the current length.

The vast majority of the world's lakes are small in size and short lived in geological terms.

Antarctic Ecosystems comprises 55 papers presented at the Fifth Symposium on Antarctic Biology held under the auspices of the Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research (SCAR) in Hobart, Australia, 29 August - 3 September, 1988.

Some fishes test their environment by generating electric fields outside their bodies (man's first contact with electricity).

Given the growing importance of essential oils and waxes, this volume deals with the analysis of a broad spectrum of these compounds from many plant origins.

In order to provide meaningful information for evaluating environmental consequences of alternative control strategies of air pollutant emissions, scientists have recently initiated numerous studies aiming at collecting and making use of regional data.

Rice is the most important cereal crop which feeds more than half the population of the world.

Pre-Mesozoic Geology of Iberia is a major reference for current understanding of the overall tectonostratigraphic evolution of the Iberian Massif.

The crucial role played by calcium as a cellular messenger has become increasingly evident, as has the recognition that cells spend much energy in maintaining the cytosolic concentration of this cation both constant and low.

In contrast to animals, plants are immobile and, thus, cannot leave a drastically changed environment.

Intracellular junctions provide routes for direct cell-to-cell signalling in both plants and animals.

The majority of scientists interested in fertilization and early developmental processes will undoubtably have encountered the works of Alberto Monroy at some time in their careers.

Taxonomy is fundamental to understanding the variety of lifeforms, and exciting expansions in molecular biology are re-volutionising the obtained data.

For a long time, immunology has been dominated by the idea of a simple linear cause-effect relationship between the exposure to an antigen and the production of specific antibodies against that antigen.

This book reviews the respiratory function of vertebrate red cells.

It has been great fun to write this book, even though it has taken longer than planned, and occasionally been exasperating.

It has been my privilege and pleasure during the past half century to participate in the unfolding of present-day concepts of the mammalian female reproductive cycles.

Food webs hold a central place in ecology.

In the field of Hodgkin's lymphoma, many new data have been collected during the last decade both on the cell of origin of this disease and on more effective therapies to cure the majority of pa- tients even in the advanced stages.

The biological action of radiation undoubtedly constitutes an issue of actual con- cern, particularly after incidences like those in Harrisburg or Chernobyl.

Never has so much progress been reported in immunology as at this congress.

In den letzten Jahren ist aus der molekularbiologischen Forschung heraus eine Analysetechnik für die breitere Anwendung entwickelt worden, die nach ihrer Ausführungsform "DNA-Hybridisierungstechnik" und nach ihrem Anwendungsbereich "Gen-Analyse" genannt wird.

Attention to viral infections and pathology previously focussed on diseases of economically important fish.

A wide range of topics are covered, including articles on nucleic acid structure, through their interactions with proteins to the control of gene expression.
