Description and Table of Contents

Description

Examines the central issues of plant physiology. Considers plants as functional units whose growth and development are influenced by their internal and external environment, the book begins with a discussion of plant anatomy to provide an understanding of the physical framework in which physiological processes operate. The need for a cost effective training scheme for new and existing staff at all levels has been met by the University of Greenwich (formerly Thames Polytechnic) and the Open University of the Netherlands. As part of the European Community Education and Technology Training initiative (COMETT) and in conjunction with a number of other leading UK and European universities, they are developing BIOTOL, a training scheme in biotechnology using open learning materials, which will provide tailor-made courses, flexible in content, pace and place.
