This fifth edition provides the basics for introductory courses on plant physiology without sacrificing the more challenging material sought by upper division and graduate level students. Many new or revised figures and photographs, study questions and a glossary of key terms ha…
This volume describes up-to-date techniques for improved production of secondary metabolites of economic interest using field and laboratory methods. Biotechnology of Plant Secondary Metabolism: Methods and Protocols explores different secondary metabolite classes, whole-plant a…

This book describes nitric oxide (NO) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) functions in higher plants. Much progress has been made in the field of NO and H2O2 research regarding the various mechanisms and functions of these two molecules, particularly regarding stress tolerance and sign…
This new book shows the work done by researchers dedicated to the study of different mycorrhizas types, the fungal species associated and their distribution influenced by geographical and environmental factors among the different South American biogeographic regions. The exclusi…
This book presents the microscopic and macroscopic bark structure of more than 180 different tree and shrub species from Europe, Asia and North America. It is the first compendium to demonstrate the anatomical variability in bark since almost 70 years (Holdheide 1951). The intro…

Biology of Genus Boswellia
by AL-HARRASI, AHMED, Khan, Abdul Latif, Asaf, Sajjad, Al-Rawahi, Ahmed
This book provides insight into the biology and genomics of the genus Boswellia (family Burseraceae), a natural resource used for the production of frankincense, an oleo-gum resin. The Boswellia species are ecologically, medicinally, commercially and culturally important. Signif…
An improved understanding of the interactions between nanoparticles and plant retorts, including their uptake, localization, and activity, could revolutionize crop production through increased disease resistance, nutrient utilization, and crop yield. This may further impact othe…
In the course of the nine chapters of this textbook, a comprehensive picture is built of plant evolution, their molecular and cellular biology, their metabolism, and their interaction with the environment and other species.

Plant cell division: methods and protocols
This volume aims to present a large panel of techniques for the study of Plant Cell Division. Plant Cell Division: Methods and Protocols captures basic experimental protocols that are commonly used to study plant cell division processes, as well as more innovative procedures. Ch…
This fully updated volume reflects the spectacular advances in our knowledge of signal transduction pathways with a selection of 'classic' as well as newly developed approaches. These detailed approaches expand into the fields of molecular biology, biochemistry, physiology, cell…
The potato: botany, production and uses
A gradual increase in global potato production will help address future food supply and nutrition issues, especially when combined with modern breeding techniques. The major focus of many potato breeding programmes is to improve yield and quality while using fewer production res…
