Description and Table of Contents
Description
This interesting volume provides an up-to-date and authentic account of the achievements made in various aspects of physiology and biochemistry of development in bryophytes. The easy-to-use tables allow speedy access to precise data, and the well-presented illustrations provide for better comprehension. Written in a comprehensive format, it covers the use of protoplasts, callus, and mutants for investigations on controlled growth and differentiation, physiological and biochemical aspects of moss protonema development, physiology of reproduction, developmental physiology of liverworts, and production of biologically active substances by bryophytes. This interesting text provides full references to recent literature, which is a must for anyone interested in teaching and research on the developmental biology of bryophytes. The book is an indispensable resource for research scholars and postgraduate students of physiology and biochemistry of nonvascular plants.
