Photosynthesis

Photosynthesis is the focus of a vast body of research, spanning studies of femtosecond reactions at the molecular level through to field studies requiring a whole season of observation. This is the first advanced-level treatment that covers the broad range of the topic within a single volume, thus constituting a uniquely comprehensive, authoritative and self-contained sourcebook. Compiled by an international team of experts, the volume considers the cell and molecular biology of chloroplasts and the latest information on the biochemistry and physiology of photosynthesis. It also covers ecological and applied aspects, such as photosynthesis, and global climate change, and crop productivity.
