Description
Photosynthesis is one of the most active areas of plant science research. Advances in molecular biology technology have profoundly affected the work in this area and have opened up the possibility of manipulating the genes involved in photosynthesis. The field is expanding, and this book provides a compilation of authoritative reviews covering a variety of important issues.

Description
Photosynthesis is currently one of the most active areas of plant science research. Detailed analysis and manipulation of the genes encoding photosynthetic components have led to major advances in the field. This book, written by leading researchers, presents our current understanding based on this recent work. Molecular Genetics of Photosynthesis is unique in bringing together the major researchers in this field to present recent advances and to review progress and prospectives. With over 1100 cited references, it is also an invaluable guide to the primary literature and essential reading for all molecular biologists and plant scientists in this area. This book is intended for post-graduates, post-doctoral researchers, and academic staff in the general area of (plant) molecular biology.
