Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

The purpose of this text is to examine the assimilation and metabolism of carbon and nitrogen in plants. These processes are dealt with in an integrative fashion assessing the physiology, biochemistry and molecular biology of each topic being discussed.

Includes bibliographical references and index.
