Signal Perception and Transduction in Higher Plants (eBook, PDF)

Redaktion: Ranjeva, Raoul; Boudet, Alain M.

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

In contrast to animals, plants are immobile and, thus, cannot leave a drastically changed environment. Therefore, plants have adapted to such changes in external conditions by specialized signal perception and transduction which allow them to buffer against such changes.
