The first stand-alone textbook for at least ten years on this increasingly hot topic in times of global climate change and sustainability in ecosystems.

Ecological biochemistry refers to the interaction of organisms with their abiotic environment and other organisms by chemical means. Biotic and abiotic factors determine the biochemical flexibility of organisms, which otherwise easily adapt to environmental changes by altering their metabolism. Sessile plants, in particular, have evolved intricate biochemical response mechanisms to fit into a changing environment. This book covers the chemistry behind these interactions, bottom up from the atomic to the system's level.

Reviews for Ecological Biochemistry: Environmental and Interspecies Interactions
"I recommend this book for students of ecology and plant physiology, although it would be a crime to exclude other disciplines because the authors' explanations of how biochemistry makes ecology work are fascinating." (Ecology, 1 December 2015)
