Esau's Plant Anatomy: Meristems, Cells, and Tissues of the by Ray F. Evert, Susan E. Eichhorn

By Ray F. Evert, Susan E. Eichhorn

This revision of the now vintage Plant Anatomy deals a very up to date overview of the constitution, functionality, and improvement of meristems, cells, and tissues of the plant physique. The textual content follows a logical structure-based association. starting with a basic evaluation, chapters then conceal the protoplast, telephone wall, and meristems, via to phloem, periderm, and secretory constructions.

"There are few extra iconic texts in botany than Esau’s Plant Anatomy… this 3rd version is a truly invaluable successor to prior editions…" ANNALS OF BOTANY, June 2007

Sample text

Evidence indicates that part of the chloroplastic protein machinery is derived from the endosymbiotic cyanobacterial ancestor of chloroplasts (Reumann and Keegstra, 1999; Bruce, 2000). In addition to regulatory traffic from the nucleus to the chloroplast, the chloroplasts transmit signals to the nucleus to coordinate nuclear and chloroplast gene expression. Moreover plastid signals also regulate the expression of nuclear genes for nonplastid proteins and for the expression of mitochondrial genes (see references in Rodermel, 2001).

The stroma is traversed by an elaborate system of thylakoids, consisting of grana (singular: granum)—stacks of disk-like thylakoids that resemble a stack of coins— and stroma thylakoids (or intergrana thylakoids) that traverse the stroma between grana and interconnect them (Figs. 10). The grana and stroma thylakoids and their internal compartments are believed to constitute a single, interconnected system. The thylakoids are not physically connected with the plastid envelope but are completely embedded in the stroma.
