  Photoperiodism in Plants, Second Edition

 
Photoperiodism in Plants, Second Edition under Photosynthesis in The Books Store
Price: $155.00
Sale: $143.20
 
Manufacturer: Academic Press
Number of Items: 1
 
 
Binding: Hardcover
Author: Brian Thomas::Daphne Vince-Prue
Publisher: Academic Press
Edition: 2
Dewey Decimal Number: 572
Publication Date: 1997-01-15
Reading Level: 428
 
Description: Photoperiodism is the response to the length of the day that enables living organisms to adapt to seasonal changes in their environment as well as latitudinal variation. As such, it is one of the most significant andcomplex aspects of the interaction between plants and their environment and is a major factor controlling their growth and development. As the new and powerful technologies of molecular genetics are brought to bear on photoperiodism, it becomes particularly important to place new work in the context of the considerable amount of physiological information which already exists on the subject. This innovative book will be of interest to a wide range of plant scientists, from those interested in fundamental plant physiology and molecular biology to agronomists and crop physiologists.

Key Features
* Provides a self-sufficient account of all the important subjects and key literature references for photoperiodism
* Includes research of the last twenty years since the publication of the First Edition
* Includes details of molecular genetic techniques brought to bear on photoperiodism

 

  Photosynthetic Excitons

 
Photosynthetic Excitons under Photosynthesis in The Books Store
Price: $117.00
Sale: $115.94
 
Manufacturer: World Scientific Publishing Company
Number of Items: 1
 
 
Binding: Hardcover
Author: Herbert Van Amerongen::Leonas Valkunas::Rienk Van Grondelle
Publisher: World Scientific Publishing Company
Dewey Decimal Number: 571
Publication Date: 2000-06
Reading Level: 590
 
Description: Together with a theoretical description of the classical conceptual approach to exciton theory, this text also discusses the nonlinear femtosecond spectroscopy which is often used for investigations. A large part of the text demonstrates the excitonic effects in a multitude of photosynthetic pigment-protein complexes and how one can understand these properties on the basis of the exciton concept.

  Aquatic Photosynthesis

 
Aquatic Photosynthesis under Photosynthesis in The Books Store
 
Manufacturer: Blackwell Publishers
Number of Items: 1
 
 
Binding: Paperback
Author: Paul G. Falkowski::John A. Raven
Publisher: Blackwell Publishers
Dewey Decimal Number: 581.13342
Publication Date: 1997-06
Reading Level: 375
 
Description:

Aquatic Photosynthesis is a comprehensive guide to understanding the evolution and ecology of photosynthesis in aquatic environments. This second edition, thoroughly revised to bring it up to date, describes how one of the most fundamental metabolic processes evolved and transformed the surface chemistry of the Earth. The book focuses on recent biochemical and biophysical advances and the molecular biological techniques that have made them possible.

In ten chapters that are self-contained but that build upon information presented earlier, the book starts with a reductionist, biophysical description of the photosynthetic reactions. It then moves through biochemical and molecular biological patterns in aquatic photoautotrophs, physiological and ecological principles, and global biogeochemical cycles. The book considers applications to ecology, and refers to historical developments. It can be used as a primary text in a lecture course, or as a supplemental text in a survey course such as biological oceanography, limnology, or biogeochemistry.


 

  Light and Photosynthesis in Aquatic Ecosystems

 
Light and Photosynthesis in Aquatic Ecosystems under Photosynthesis in The Books Store
 
Manufacturer: Cambridge University Press
 
 
Binding: Hardcover
Author: John T. O. Kirk
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
Edition: 2
Dewey Decimal Number: 574.5263
Publication Date: 1994-05-27
Reading Level: 525
 
Description: Penetration of light into aquatic ecosystems is greatly affected by the absorption and scattering processes that take place within the water. Thus within any water body, the intensity and color of the light field changes greatly with depth and this has a marked influence on both the total productivity of, and the kinds of plant that predominate in, the ecosystem. This study presents an integrated and coherent treatment of the key role of light in aquatic ecosystems. It ranges from the physics of light transmission within water, through the biochemistry and physiology of aquatic photosynthesis, to the ecological relationships that depend on the underwater light climate.
