The purpose of the book is to emphasise the structural and spatial events which occur during the development of specialised plant cells.

Plant cell walls are complex, dynamic cellular structures essential for plant growth, development, physiology and adaptation.

The text also describes the use of plant cell cultures in biochemistry; the primary cell walls of flowering plants; and the morphology, purification, chemical and enzymatic composition, and functions of the plasma membrane and the cytosol.

This is a must-have reference for scientists with a background in plant anatomy, plant physiology, plant growth and development, plant taxonomy, and more.

Topics covered in this volume include techniques for imaging and analyzing membrane dynamics and movement across membranes; cell wall composition, structure and mechanics; cytoskeleton dynamics and organization; cell development; ion ...

This is at odds with the amount of interest in vacuoles that has been expressed in the last two decades. This comprehensive work provides a solid foundation on vacuoles to an advanced level.

This is a book for academic and industrial researchers in plant cell biology, biochemistry, developmental biology, genetics and molecular biology.

Plant Cells and Their Organelles provides a comprehensive overview of the structure and function of plant organelles. The text focuses on subcellular organelles while also providing relevant background on plant cells, tissues and organs.

Learn the basics of plant cell structure and examine the fascinating ways botanists will be using the growing garden of genetic information.
