Plants utilize light not only for photosynthesis but also as environmental signals. They are capable of perceiving wavelength, intensity, direction, duration, and other attributes of light to perform appropriate physiological and developmental changes. This volume presents overviews of and the latest findings in many of the interconnected aspects of plant photomorphogenesis, including photoreceptors (phytochromes, cryptochromes, and phototropins), signal transduction, photoperiodism, and circadian rhythms, in 42 chapters. Also included, is a prologue by Prof. Masaki Furuya that gives an overview of the historical background. With contributions from preeminent researchers in specific subjects from around the world, this book will be a valuable source for a range of scientists from undergraduate to professional levels.

Reviews

植物は、光を光合成のためだけでなく、環境シグナルとしても利用しており、波長や、強度、方向、日照時間、そのほか光の特性を感知して適切な生理変化や発育変化を起こす能力がある.本書は、光受容体(フィトクロム、クリプトクロム、フォトトロピン)や、シグナル伝達、光周性、概日リズムなどを含めて、植物の光形態形成に関する概要と最新の研究成果について、様々な角度から全42章に纏めてある. 本書の序章では、古谷雅樹先生が歴史的背景の大要を説明されており、また、各専門分野の第一人者らが世界中から集まり、本文の執筆を手がけた.本書は学生から研究者レベルまで幅広い層の読者に役立つ参考書である.
