Description for Water and Solute Permeability of Plant Cuticles
Hardback. Based on representative examples, the authors of this book describe the basics of sorption, diffusion and permeability characteristics of cuticles. They present experimental approaches, including data analysis and hints to avoid erroneous interpretations. Num Pages: 312 pages, 33 black & white tables, biography. BIC Classification: PHVN; PSTD; TV. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 18. Weight in Grams: 637.
Transport properties of plant cuticles are important for different ?elds of modern plant sciences. Ecologists and physiologists are interested in water losses to the environment via the cuticle. Penetration of plant protecting agents and nutrients into leaves and fruits is relevant for research in agriculture and plant protection. Ecotoxicologists need to know the amounts of environmental xenobiotics which accumulate in leaves and other primary plant organs from the environment. For all of these studies suitable methods should be used, and a sound theoretical basis helps to formulate testable hypotheses and to interpret experimental data. Unnecessary experiments and experiments which yield ... Read more
