Among various  subjects, photosynthesis is one of the most important, and thus a  popular topic in both molecular and organismic biology, and one which  has made a considerable impact throughout the world since almost all  life on Earth depends upon it as a source of food, fuel and oxygen.  However, for growth of plants, light is equally essential, and  research on photomorphogenesis has revealed exciting new developments  with the application of newer molecular biological approaches. The  present book brings together and integrates various aspects of  photosynthesis, biology of pigments, light regulation of chloroplast  development, nuclear and chloroplast gene expression, light signal  transduction, other photomorphogenetic processes and some  photoecological aspects under one cover. The chapters cover  biochemical and molecular discussions of most of the above topics in a  comprehensive manner and include a wide range of `hot topics' that are  currently under investigation in the field of photobiology of  cyanobacteria, algae and plants. \u003cbr\u003e  The authors of this book are selected international authorities in  their fields from USA, Europe, Australia and Asia. The book is  designed primarily to be used as a text book by graduates and  post-graduates. It is, however, also intended to be a resource book  for new researchers in plant photobiology. Several introductory  chapters are designed as suitable reading for undergraduate courses in  integrative and molecular biology, biochemistry and biophysics.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e05 October 2013\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpringer Netherlands\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpringer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9789401060264\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePaperback softback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePage Count: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1019\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51558222397580,"sku":"9789401060264","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9789401060264.jpg?v=1784780736","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9789401060264","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
