Plants convert inorganic nitrogen into amino acids, the building blocks of a variety of functional compounds. They help to resist stresses and defend plants against pests and diseases. Experts from around the world review the biochemistry and molecular biology of protein amino acids and other such compounds found in the higher plants. The most recent research is authoritatively presented on the physiological role of these compounds.This book will be of great value to researchers in...
