Description for Plant Solute Transport
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. Weight in Grams: 930.

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. Having dealt with the role of plant solutes in ‘normal’ conditions, the volume proceeds to examine how the use of solutes has been adapted to more extreme environments such as hot, dry deserts, freezing mountains and saline marshes.
