Photomorphogenesis in Plants and Bacteria Function and Signal Transduction Mechanisms

Photomorphogenesis in Plants and Bacteria Function and Signal Transduction Mechanisms / edited by Eberhard Schäfer, Ferenc Nagy.

Plants as sessile organisms have evolved fascinating capacities to adapt to changes in their natural environment. Arguably, light is by far the most important and variable environmental factor. The quality, quantity, direction and duration of light is monitored by a series of photoreceptors covering...
