4	Sebs 42 Plant Metabolism Non-P more books like this by M J Emes add to wishlist Many of the most important plant crop products, including oils, starch and protein, are produced in non-photosynthetic tissues such as seeds, roots and tubers. Unlike the situation found in leaves, metabolism in these tissues is not necessarily dominated by plastidial activities, and the provision of energy for biosynthetic processes is therefore ... see all copies from $23.99! new only from $102.53! \| first editions
5	Biochemical Mechanisms of Detoxification in Higher Plants: Basis of Phytoremediation more books like this by George Kvesitadze, Gia Khatisashvili, Tinatin Sadunishvili add to wishlist Plants play a key role in purifying the biosphere of the toxic effects of industrial activity. This book shows how systematic application of the results of investigations into the metabolism of xenobiotics (foreign, often toxic substances) in plants could make a vastly increased contribution to planetary well-being.

9	Antioxidants and Reactive Oxygen Species in Plants more books like this by Nicholas Smirnoff add to wishlist Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are produced during the interaction of metabolism with oxygen. As ROS have the potential to cause oxidative damage by reacting with biomolecules, research on ROS has concentrated on the oxidative damage that results from exposure to environmental stresses and on the role of ROS in defence against pathogens. However, ... see all copies from $153.99! new only from $181.80! \| SVS
10	Annual Plant Reviews, Control of Primary Metabolism in Plants more books like this by William C Plaxton (Editor), Michael McManus (Editor) add to wishlist The ability to control the rates of metabolic processes in response to changes in the internal or external environment is an indispensable attribute of living cells that must have arisen with life's origin. This adaptability is necessary for conserving the stability of the intracellular environment which is, in turn, essential for maintaining an ... see all copies from $213.00! new only from $213.00! \| SVS
