Photosynthesis and the complex network within plants is becoming
more important than ever, because of the earth's changing climate.
In addition, the concepts can be used in other areas, and the
science itself is useful in practical applications in many branches
of science, including medicine, biology, biophysics, and chemistry.
This original, groundbreaking work by two highly experienced and
well-known scientists introduces a new and different approach to
thinking about living organisms, what we can learn from them, and
how we can use the concepts within their scientific makeup in
practice. This book describes the principles of complex signaling
networks enabling spatiotemporally-directed macroscopic processes
by the coupling of systems leading to a bottom-up information
transfer in photosynthetic organisms. Top-down messengers triggered
by macroscopic actuators like sunlight, gravity, environment or
stress lead to an activation of the gene regulation on the
molecular level. Mainly the generation and monitoring, as well the
role of reactive oxygen species in photosynthetic organisms as
typical messengers in complex networks, are described. A
theoretical approach according to the principle of synergetics is
presented to model light absorption, electron transfer and membrane
dynamics in plants. A special focus will be attended to nonlinear
processes that form the basic principle for the accumulation of
energy reservoirs and large forces enabling the dynamics of
macroscopic devices. This volume is a must-have for any scientist,
student, or engineer working with photosynthesis. The concepts
herein are not available anywhere else, in any other format, and it
is truly a groundbreaking work with sure to be long-lasting effects
on the scientific community.
