"...nearly any plant scientist will find this a useful reference
work to have on their bookshelf." --Daniel Taub, PLANT SCIENCE
BULLETIN
"The presentation of this new edition has been improved... It is
richly illustrated. A 180-page reference section contributes to the
quality of the book. The book is a fantastic source of information
for instructors in plant physiology. The book may be the scientific
legacy of the recently declared coeditor of this journal." --Michel
Couderchet, JOURNAL OF PLANT PHYSIOLOGY
"...I should stress that the author has a very clear, easy to
follow and instructive style of presentation." --ACTA PHYSIOLOGIAE
PLANTARUM
"...thoroughly recommended... a welcome addition to any library or
laboratory shelf and should remain relevant for many years." --Marc
