"Fundamentals was originally developed in response to requests from educators for a textbook that is both up-to-date and accessible. It was designed to be used as the primary textbook for undergraduate plant physiology and structure/function classes, where students may not yet have had extensive training in organic chemistry, genetics, plant anatomy, biochemistry, or molecular biology.

Produktbeschreibung
"Fundamentals was originally developed in response to requests from educators for a textbook that is both up-to-date and accessible. It was designed to be used as the primary textbook for undergraduate plant physiology and structure/function classes, where students may not yet have had extensive training in organic chemistry, genetics, plant anatomy, biochemistry, or molecular biology. Fundamentals presents plant physiology in the context of anatomy and growth in a manner that is particularly suited to programs in applied plant biology, such as horticulture and agronomy, or in ecology programs where training in physiology is a mandatory or optional component. Each chapter has been carefully tailored to achieve a discrete set of learning outcomes and overall competence to apply essential concepts of plant physiology to real-world problems"--
Autorenporträt
Lincoln Taiz is Professor Emeritus of Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology at the University of California at Santa Cruz. He received his Ph.D. in Botany from the University of California at Berkeley in 1971. Dr. Taiz's main research focus has been on the structure, function, and evolution of vacuolar H+-ATPases. He has also worked on gibberellins, cell wall mechanical properties, metal tolerance, auxin transport, and stomatal opening. Ian Max Møller is Associate Professor of Molecular Biology and Genetics at Aarhus University, Denmark. He received his Ph.D. in Plant Biochemistry from Imperial College, London, UK. He has worked at Lund University, Sweden and, more recently, at Risø National Laboratory and the Royal Veterinary and Agricultural University in Copenhagen, Denmark. Professor Møller has investigated plant respiration throughout his career. His current interests include turnover of reactive oxygen species and the role of protein oxidation in plant cells. Angus Murphy has been Professor and Chair of the Department of Plant Science and Landscape Architecture at the University of Maryland since 2012. He earned his Ph.D. in Biology from the University of California at Santa Cruz in 1996 and moved to Purdue University as an assistant professor in 2001. Dr. Murphy studies ATP-Binding Cassette transporters, the regulation of auxin transport, and the mechanisms by which transport proteins are regulated in plastic plant growth. Wendy A. Peer is an Associate Professor of Plant Biology and Chemical Ecology in the Department of Environmental Science and Technology at the University of Maryland. She received her Ph.D. at the University of California, Santa Cruz. Wendy Peer's research focuses on developmental, biotic, and abiotic interactions that affect seedling establishment and on identifying novel applications of microbial pairing with plant-based foods to enhance food quality and nutrition
