This work provides students in plant sciences with a concise general account of plant biochemistry. Up-to-date surveys are divided into four sections: the cell; primary metabolism; special metabolism; and the plant and the environment. There is a strong emphasis on plant metabolism as well as enzymological, methodological, molecular biological, functional and regulatory aspects of plant biochemistry. Illustrations of metabolic pathways are used extensively and further reading lists are also included.

Plant Biochemistry provides students and researchers in the plant sciences with a concise, up-to-date account of the biochemical basis of the major metabolic processes in plants, written by experts in the field.
The coverage of the subject is divided into four sections:
* The plant cell-describing both molecular components and function.
* Primary metabolism-including the pathways of carbohydrate, lipid, nitrogen, nucleic acid and protein metabolism as well as gene regulation.
* Special metabolism-chapters on phenolics, isoprenoids and secondary nitrogen compounds.
* The plant and the environment-discussions of pathology, ecology and biotechnology at the molecular level.
The emphasis is on plant metabolism, but functional, regulatory, and molecular biological aspects have been covered, as well as illustrations of pathways, structural features, and bibliographies. This book will be of interest to a wide audience from final year undergraduates to active researchers in the field.
