Plant Cell Biology, Second Edition: From Astronomy to Zoology
connects the fundamentals of plant anatomy, plant physiology, plant
growth and development, plant taxonomy, plant biochemistry, plant
molecular biology, and plant cell biology. It covers all aspects of
plant cell biology without emphasizing any one plant, organelle,
molecule, or technique. Although most examples are biased towards
plants, basic similarities between all living eukaryotic cells (animal
and plant) are recognized and used to best illustrate cell processes.
This is a must-have reference for scientists with a background in plant
anatomy, plant physiology, plant growth and development, plant taxonomy,
and more.
- Includes chapter on using mutants and genetic approaches to plant cell biology research and a chapter on -omic technologies
- Explains the physiological underpinnings of biological processes to bring original insights relating to plants
- Includes
examples throughout from physics, chemistry, geology, and biology to
bring understanding on plant cell development, growth, chemistry and
diseases
- Provides the essential tools for students to be able to
evaluate and assess the mechanisms involved in cell growth, chromosome
motion, membrane trafficking and energy exchange
