Book Description
Three major changes have been made in Research Experiences in Plant Physiology in producing this second edition. The format has been changed so as to minimize the number of pages and hence the cost to students, hopefully without sacrifice of readability or general utility of the manual. Three new exercises have been added on Phytochrome Effects in Nyctinastic Leaf Movements (Exercise 26), Measurement of Leaf Water Potentials with a Pressure Chamber (Exercise 27), and The Hill Reaction of Photosynthesis (Exercise 28) in an effort to provide more balanced coverage of the major topics in Plant Physiology. Lastly, modest revisions have been made in the text and lists of references throughout the manual and in the index. It is hoped that these collective changes will lead to continued wide acceptance of Research Experiences in Plant Physiology as the laboratory manual for upper-division undergraduate and graduate courses in Plant Physiology. The preparation of this new edition naturally has involved the invaluable assistance of several persons. lowe special thanks to Mrs. Ellen Witt for her patience and proficiency in retyping the entire manual. To Mrs. Witt, Mrs. Leona Nicholson, and my wife, Arvida, I am grateful for assistance in proofreading. I thank Brian D. Cleary for assisting with the writing of Exercise 27 on leaf water potentials, and Donald J. Armstrong for his valuable criticism and suggestions regarding many of the exercises. Finally, I thank Mr. Stephen J. Danko for assisting with the testing of the new exercises. Thomas C.

Book Description
This book contains a number of papers dealing with the main topics of a Symposium on "Lipids and Lipid Polymers in Higher Plants", held in July 1976 at the Botanical Institute of the University of Karlsruhe. The symposium was organized by Professors E. Heinz, H.K. Lichtenthaler, H.K. Mangold, and M. Tevini. The sponsorship by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft and the Erwin-Riesch-Stiftung is gratefully acknowledged. The intention of the Symposium was to bring together in one place scientists working in very different fields of plant lipids, such as fatty acids, glycolipids, phospholipids, prenyllipids, sterols, and lipid polymers. The emphasis was placed on biosynthesis, distribution, function, and physiology of the various higher plant lipids and their role in biomembranes and epidermal cell walls. By combining the major contributions in this book, we hope to give all plant scientists access to the recent developments in biochemistry and physiology of plant lipid metabolism. The editors are very grateful to the contributors, who have taken great care to present up-to-date reviews. Karlsruhe, May 1977 M. TEVINI H.K. LICHTENTHALER Contents Section 1.

Book Description
For several decades botanists have been impressed by the discovery that the distribution of secondary plant substances follows the general lines of plant relationships. However, it soon became clear that little was to be gained from the study of individual compounds and their natural distribu tion. Therefore, more comprehensive studies were attempt ed in which the secondary chemistry of a major plant group was carefully studied and evaluated in the broader context of comparative phytochemistry. Holger Erdtman's admir able work on Coniferae is the foremost example of this kind. Since then, there has been an upswing in the study of the biosynthesis of secondary plant substances and it has become quite customary to make use of biosynthetic knowledge in interpreting chemosystematic evidence. More over, since taxonomists have insisted that use be made of all potentially available evidence for building classifications, it has been claimed that chemosystematics too should con sider the whole array of constituents present in a major taxon. However, in practice it has proved difficult to utilize fully the potential of natural product chemistry and biosynthetic studies for plant systematics and evolution, because bota nists found themselves rather disorientated by the scattered, often hardly accessible chemical literature and the fact that the chemical evidence was difficult for them to evaluate! Although the pioneering work of E. C.
