Progress in Botany

With one volume each year, this series keeps scientists and advanced students informed of the latest developments and results in all areas of the plant sciences.
The present volume includes reviews on
genetics,
cell biology,
physiology,
comparative morphology,
systematics,
ecology and
vegetation science

A review of the latest results in the major areas of the plant sciences in the past 1-2 years

Auteur
Until 2004 Ulrich Lüttge taught at the Institute for Botany at the TU Darmstadt. He is an experienced teacher and is concerned with membrane physiology and biochemistry, circadian rhythms among photosynthesis processes as well as the antioxidative defense system of plants
