4.9/5 (13420 ratings)

Description:Scientific progress hinges on continual discovery and the extension of previous discoveries. The important series of volumes "Discoveries in Plant Biology" is specially compiled to provide a microcosmic atlas of the landmark discoveries that span the breadth of plant biology. Written by renowned plant biologists, the papers describe how classic discoveries were made and how they have served as the basis for subsequent breakthroughs.The 24 chapters in this third volume describe discoveries which contribute to the foundations of modern plant biology. The contributors, many of whom personally lit the way, bring readers back in time as if on a journey to retrace the paths and rethink the ideas they followed. These guided tours on how to decipher the natural laws will lead to an appreciation of the development of each field from simple concepts to an advanced multidisciplinary field of today. This volume will be of special interest to botanists, biochemists, plant physiologists and geneticists, and of general interest to those who are still fascinated by how discoveries are made.Contents: The Discovery of the Essential Elements "(E Epstein)"The Discovery of 1-Aminocyclopropane-1-Carboxylic Acid as the Immediate Precursor of Ethylene "(D O Adams)"Discovery of Auxin "(Y Masuda & S Kamisaka)"Non-Reducing Saccharides: Floridosides and Sucrose "(J-C Su)"Chlorophyll Biosynthesis I: From Analysis of Mutants to Genetic Engineering of the Pathway "(D von Wettstein)"Chlorophyll Biosynthesis II: Adventures with Native and Recombinant Enzymes "(D von Wettstein)"Discovery of the Two Parallel Pathways for Isoprenoid Biosynthesis in Plants "(H K Lichtenthaler)"Structure and Biosynthesis of Cellulose.
