The plant cell wall plays a vital role in almost every aspect of
plant physiology. New techniques in spectroscopy, biophysics and
molecular biology have revealed the extraordinary complexity of its
molecular architecture and just how important this structure is in
the control of plant growth and development. The Second Edition of
this accessible and integrated textbook has been revised and
updated throughout. As well as focusing on the structure and
function of plant cell walls the book also looks at the
applications of this research. It discusses how plant cell walls
can be exploited by the biotechnology industry and some of the main
challenges for future research. Key topics include: architecture
and skeletal functions of the wall; cell-wall formation; control of
cell growth; role in intracellular transport; interactions with
other organisms; cell-wall degradation; biotechnological
applications of cell-walls; role in diet and health. This textbook
provides a clear, well illustrated introduction to the physiology
and biochemistry of plant cell walls which will be invaluable to
upper level undergraduate and post graduate students of plant
physiology, plant pathology, plant biotechnology and biochemistry.
