All organisms produce nucleobases, nucleosides, and nucleotides of purines and pyrimidines. However, while there have been a number of texts on nucleotide metabolism in microorganisms and humans, the presence of these phenomena in plant life has gone comparatively unexplored. Th…
"All organisms produce nucleobases, nucleosides and nucleotides of purines and pyrimidines. Plant Nucleotide Metabolism is the first book to focus on plants which exhibit important differences to other organisms in key areas of purine nucleotide metabolism and function. This boo…

Biochemical basis of plant breeding
First published in 1985: This book presents a comprehensive survey of progress and current knowledge of those biochemical processes with greater potential for the development of superior cultivars: Photosynthesis, photorespiration, nitrate assimilation, biological nitrogen fixat…
Endophytic fungi : definitions, diversity, distribution and their significance in plant life / Alexander Schouten -- Sources, niches and routes of colonization by beneficial bacterial endophytes / Stéphane Compant and Corinne Vacher -- Analysing seed endophytes for biotechnology…
This book gives an overview on the current knowledge about endophytic fungi and bacteria, their diversity, their relationships with plant pests and pathogens, their distribution and activities inside the plant and their (potential) applications in developing more sustainable agr…
Endophytes are bacterial and fungal microorganisms that colonize plants, typically boosting the health of the host plant and altering its metabolism. This book explores the diversity of endophytes, their potential value and future challenges in the contexts of agricultural produ…
Table of Contents: 1. Protease/inhibitor interactions in plant-pest systems: a brief overview, 2. Control of Phytophagous insect pests using serine protease inhibitors, 3. Cystatin-based control of insects, with special erference to Oryzacystatin.
Metabolic Adaptations in Plants during Abiotic Stress covers a topic of past, present and future interest for both scientists and policy makers as the global challenge of climate change is addressed. Understanding the mechanisms of plant adaptation to environmental stresses can …
