Translocation in Plants has been carefully compiled and edited to meet the long felt needs of increasingly large number of those who have to deal with the different aspects of the transport of various substances from one part of plant to the other. It provides a balanced and integrated treatment of the entire field transport system. The title is intelligible to the educated layman but it deals with some complex ideas. It is an adequate text for all requirements in this area for most university students. Special efforts have been made to explain ideas in non mathematical terms. The primary aim throughout has been clarity, simplicity and the high standard. It will definitely prove to be an authoritative work to teachers, students and research workers in the field of transport system. Contents: Stem, Water in Plant Cells, Soil Water, Solutes in Plants, Phloem Translocation.
The present title Photosynthesis in Plants is a classical branch in plant physiology Biochemists purify photosynthetic enzymes and study their characteristics in the test tube; biophysicists isolate photosynthetic membranes and determine their spectroscopic properties in cuvettes; molecular biologists clone the genes that encode photosynthetic proteins and study their regulation during development. In contrast, plant physiologists study photosynthesis in action at different levels of organisation, including the chloroplast, the cell, the leaf and the whole plant. Stated differently, biochemists, biophysicists and molecular biologists study cellular components more or less in isolation, whereas plant physiologists investigate the way in which the components interact with each other to carry out biological processes and functions. Contents: Photophysiology, Process of Photosynthesis, Carbon in Photosynthesis, Role of Chlorophyll in Photosynthesis, Factors Affecting Photosynthesis, Effect of Heat Stress on Photosynthesis, Genetic Control of Photosynthesis, Algal Photosynthesis, Light Response Curve, Photosynthesis in Nature.
Contents: Symbiotic Relationships, Ecological Factors, Aquatic Ecosystems, Terrestrial Ecosystems, Ecological Niches, Population Ecology, Nutrient Cycles of an Ecosystem, Oxygen Cycle, Mineral Cycles, Water Cycle, Nitrogen Cycle, Carbon Cycle, Energy Cycle, Energy Cycle in Ecosystems.
