Nitrogen is an essential element for plant growth. During the green
revolution nitrogenfertilisation was responsible for spectacular
yield increases. At present yield is balanced with commitments
towards the environment and sustainable agriculture. For
agro-biotechnology comprehensive knowledge of plant functioning is
needed. Yield improvement and accumulation of essential nitrogen
compounds is relying on selection and gene technologies.
Research on the uptake, acquisition and assimilation of
nitrogen, as well as the synthesis and storage of reserve and
defence N-compounds, therefore, is essential. The third volume in
the Plant Ecophysiology series integrates functional and molecular
physiology with ecophysiological and sustainable agricultural
approaches to get a better understanding of the regulation and the
impact of environmental and stress signals on nitrogen acquisition
and assimilation. The book is of interest for advanced students and
junior researchers and supplies comprehensive information for
scientists working in the field of nitrogen metabolism and readers
interested in sustainable development.
