Encyclopaedia Of Photosynthesis And Photo Morphogenesis
Photosynthesis is the process of converting light energy into chemical energy and storing it in the bonds of sugar. This process occurs in plants and some algae (Kingdom Protista).Plants need only light. energy, CO2, and H2O to make sugar. The process of photosynthesis takes place in the chloroplasts, specifically using chlorophyll, the green pigment involved in photosynthesis. Photosynthesis takes place primarily in plant 'leaves, and little to none occurs in stems, etc. The parts of a typical leaf include the up eland lower epidermis, the mesophyll, the vascular bundle(s) (veins), and the stomates)r The upper and lower epidermal cells do not have chloroplasts, thus photosynthesis does not occur there. They serve primarily as protection for the rest of the leaf. The stomatesare holes which occur primarily in the lower epidermis and are for air exchange: they let CO2in and O2 out. The book is designed primarily to be used as a resource book for new researchers in plant photobiology. Contents: An introduction to Photosynthesis and Its Applications; Photosynthetic Antennas and Reaction .Centre's: Current Understanding and ,Prospects for improvement; The Photo-synthetic Process; Significance of Photosynthesis; New 'Understanding of Photosynthesis Energy Conversion; Photosynthesis Tag and Plant Food-Making Lesson; The Light Reactions of Photosynthesis; A Primer on Photosynthesis and the Functioning of Cells; Photosynthetic Environment; Ph-ocusingon Photosynthesis in and out of the Garden; Effects of Radiation Quality, intensity, and Duration on Photosynthesis and Growth; Phytochrome-mediated Responses'.
