Description for Chloroplast Biogenesis
Hardback. Provides the story of chloroplast biogenesis, from proplastid to gerontoplast with mature chloroplast as the transient. This book reviews the development of mature chloroplast from proplastid and subsequent transformation of the mature organelle to gerontoplast during senescence. Num Pages: 353 pages, biography.

Chloroplast is the organelle where the life-giving process photosynthesis takes place; it is the site where plants and algae produce food and oxygen that sustain our life.

I consider it a great privilege and honor to have been asked to write this foreword. The book ' Chloroplast biogenesis: from proplastid to gerontoplast' goes much beyond photosynthesis. The character of the book is different from that of many currently available books ... Read more
