Biology, life sciences

Hardback. This book provides a broad overview of solute transport in plants. It first determines what solutes are present in plants and what roles they play. The physical bases of ion and water movement are considered. The volume then discusses the ways in which solutes are moved across individual membranes, within and between cells, and around the plant. Editor(s): Yeo, A. R.; Flowers, Timothy J. Num Pages: 424 pages, Illustrations (some col.). BIC Classification: PST. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 240 x 159 x 25.
