Description for Salinity
Hardback. Addresses the responses of plants to salinity. This book discusses salinity as an environmental soil factor and its global impact on ecosystems, and covers the plant responses from the whole-plant level through metabolic changes to the underlying molecular and genetic mechanisms. Editor(s): Lauchli, Andre; Luttge, Ulrich E. Num Pages: 552 pages, 35 black & white illustrations, 5 colour illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: PSB; PSTD. Category: (G) General (US: Trade); (P) Professional & Vocational; (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 235 x 155 x 32. Weight in Grams: 1142.
In biology, the very big global and thevery small molecular issues currently appear to be in the limelight ofpublic interest and research funding policies. They are in danger of drifting apart from each other. They apply very coarse and very fine scaling, respectively, but coherence is lost when the various intermediate levels of different scales are neglected. Regarding SALINITY we are clearly dealing with a global problem, which due to progressing salinization of arable land is of vital interest for society. Explanations and basic understanding as well as solutions and remedies may finally lie at the molecular level. It is ... Read more
