Features: The book is divided into 3 parts and 13 chapters. Part 1: Plant Substance Production and Light Energy Utilization, including plant water physiology, mineral nutrition, and photosynthesis; Part 2: Transformation of Substances and Energy within Plants, including plant respiration, metabolism of organic substances in plants, and transport of organic substances in plants; Part 3: Plant Growth and Development, covering cell signaling, plant growth substances, photomorphogenesis, plant growth physiology, plant reproductive physiology, plant maturation and senescence physiology, and plant stress physiology. In addition to maintaining the traditional strengths of strong logical structure, clear and concise language, ease of self-study, and staying up-to-date, this edition has enhanced the content on molecular plant physiology, signal transduction, stress resistance physiology, the physiological and biochemical principles of improving crop quality under climatic and chemical conditions, and the significant contributions of Chinese scientists (including Chinese-American scientists) to plant physiology in recent years.
