Full Description
"The Structure and Function of Plastids" is Volume 23 in the "Advances in Photosynthesis and Respiration Series". This volume provides a comprehensive look at the biology of plastids, the multifunctional biosynthetic factories that are unique to plants and algae. Fifty-nine international experts have contributed 27 chapters that cover all aspects of this large and diverse family of plant and algal organelles.
