Description for Growth Control in Woody Plants (Physiological Ecology)
hardcover. The processes and mechanisms that control the growth of woody plants are of crucial importance for both economic and biological reasons. This work includes discussion of the growth controlling factors in both reproductive structures (flowers, fruit, seeds, pollen) and vegetative organs (stems, branches, leaves, and roots). Series: Physiological Ecology. Num Pages: 641 pages, b&w and colour illustrations, index. BIC Classification: PSTD; PSTL. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 229 x 152 x 32. Weight in Grams: 1070.
The processes and mechanisms that control the growth of woody plants are of crucial importance for both economic and biological reasons. The comprehensive coverage of Growth Control in Woody Plants includes discussion of the growth controlling factors in both reproductive structures (flowers, fruit, seeds, pollen, etc.) and vegetative organs (stems, branches, leaves, and roots). Other major topics covered include seed germination, seedling growth, physiological and environmental regulation of growth, cultural practices, and biotechnology. This comprehensive treatment of the many factors that control the growth of woody plants can serve both as a valuable text and as a frequently used reference. ... Read more

About Kozlowski, T.T.; Pallardy, Stephen G.
Stephen Pallardy’s research interests include the physiological responses of plants to water stress and comparative water relations, and the mechanisms by which seedlings of selected woody species and ecotypes are able to resist drought stress more effectively than others. The underlying motivation for that research included understanding how selective pressures that are associated with xeric habitats influence the evolution ... Read more
