This book results from a symposium on the theme of 'The Physiology
and Biochemistry of Plant Productivity' which was held at the
University of Calgary from July 14-18, 1980, and was jointly
sponsored by the Canadian Society of Plant Physiologists and the
International Association of Plant Physiologists. The subject
matter of the book deals with various aspects of nitrogen and
carbon metabolism, their interrelationships and interdependence.
The topics covered in the chapters highlight various interesting
and important lines of research that are in progress. There is no
attempt to provide a comprehensive coverage of the basic
physiological knowledge upon which this research depend- important
references are to be found at the end of each chapter, however, and
the reader will be able to pursue these as necessary. An
introductory chapter by Dr. R.G.S. Bidwell (winner of the C.S.P.P.
Gold Medal in 1979) considers some implications of plant
physiological research and the aims and responsibilities of plant
physiologists. In the next two chapters Drs. J. Rigaud and L.E.
Schrader (with R.J. Thomas) elaborate on current research on
nitrate metabolism and nitrogen fixation, and how an understanding
of these phenomena might be usefully applied towards the
manipulation of plants to improve productivity. Dr. J.S.
