Plants constantly cope with unfavourable ecosystem conditions, preventing them reaching full genetic potential for growth, development and productivity. This book covers plants' responses to environmental changes, gathering the most recent developments, it is an important resour…
"This book describes the significance of amino acids and their derivatives in plant stress adaptation/tolerance, and presents biotechnological strategies for the manipulation of amino acids and their major derivatives to improve abiotic and abiotic stress tolerance in crop plant…
The book integrates fundamental concepts in thermodynamics and kinetics with an introduction to biological mechanism at the level of molecular structure. The central theme is that the ways in which proteins, DNA, and RNA work together in a cell are connected intimately to the st…
"A peptidomimetic is a small protein-like chain designed to mimic a peptide with adjusted molecular properties such as enhanced stability or biological activity. It is a very powerful approach for the generation of small-molecule-based drugs as enzyme inhibitors or receptor liga…
Abstract: The annual reviews of current research on fermentation processes are presented to assist the reader to keep up with developments in areas where he has limited or peripheral interest. The reviews are of major developments in the field. Topics include discussions of ferm…
