Plant Physiological Ecology

by Hans Lambers, Rafael S. Oliveira ...

Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
Growth, reproduction, and geographical distribution of plants are profoundly influenced by their physiological ecology: the interaction with the surrounding physical, chemical, and biological environments. This textbook highlights mechanisms that underlie plant physiological ecology at the levels of physiology, biochemistry, biophysics, and molecular biology. At the same time, the integrative ...
