Amino Acids in Higher Plants
Author: J P F D'MelloPublisher: CABI
ISBN: 1780642636
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 634
Book Description
Amino acids play a role in the defence mechanisms and stress responses of plants, as well as in food quality and safety for humans and animals. Recent advances in the field make a comprehensive overview of the information a necessity; this book collates chapters on plant enzymes and metabolism, modulation, molecular aspects and secondary products. Also including information on ecology, the environment and mammalian nutrition and toxicology, it provides an authoritative resource.
Amino Acid
Author: Toshiki AsaoPublisher: BoD – Books on Demand
ISBN: 9535132415
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 296
Book Description
Amino Acid - New Insights and Roles in Plant and Animal provides useful information on new aspects of amino acid structure, synthesis reactions, dietary application in animals, and metabolism in plants. Section 1 includes chapters that describe the therapeutic uses, antiallergic effects, new aspects in the D-amino acid structure, historical background of desmosines, and stereoselective synthesis of ?-aminophosphonic acids. Section 2 presents the role of amino acids in plants, which includes new insights and aspects of D-amino acids, metabolism and transport in soybean, changes during energy storage compound accumulation of microalgae, and determination of amino acids from natural compounds. Section 3 describes the chapters on methodologies and requirement of dietary amino acids for Japanese quails, laying hens, and finishing pigs. The final chapter identifies potential importance of glutathione S-transferase activity for generating resistance to triclabendazole in Fasciola hepatica.
Plant Nitrogen
Author: Peter J. LeaPublisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9783540677994
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 434
Book Description
Jointly published with INRA, Paris. This book covers all aspects of the transfer of nitrogen from the soil and air to a final resting place in the seed protein of a crop plant. It describes the physiological and molecular mechanisms of ammonium and nitrate transport and assimilation, including symbiotic nitrogen fixation by the Rhizobiacea. Amino acid metabolism and nitrogen traffic during plant growth and development and details of protein biosynthesis in the seeds are also extensively covered. Finally, the effects of the application of nitrogen fertilisers on plant growth, crop yield and the environment are discussed. Written by international experts in their field, Plant Nitrogen is essential reading for all plant biochemists, biotechnologists, molecular biologists and physiologists as well as plant breeders, agricultural engineers, agronomists and phytochemists.
Photosynthetic Nitrogen Assimilation and Associated Carbon and Respiratory Metabolism

Pages : 300
Book Description
According to many textbooks, carbohydrates are the photosynthesis and mitochondrial respiration fluctuate in a circadian manner in almost every unique final products of plant photosynthesis. However, the photoautotrophic production of organic organism studied. In addition, external triggers and environmental influences necessitate precise and nitrogenous compounds may be just as old, in appropriate re-adjustment of relative flux rates, to evolutionary terms, as carbohydrate synthesis. In the algae and plants of today, the light-driven assimilation prevent excessive swings in energy/resource provision of nitrogen remains a key function, operating and use. This requires integrated control of the alongside and intermeshing with photosynthesis and expression and activity of numerous key enzymes in respiration. Photosynthetic production of reduced photosynthetic and respiratory pathways, in order to carbon and its reoxidation in respiration are necessary co-ordinate carbon partioning and nitrogen assim- ation. to produce both the energy and the carbon skeletons required for the incorporation of inorganic nitrogen This volume has two principal aims. The first is to into amino acids. Conversely, nitrogen assimilation provide a comprehensive account of the very latest developments in our understanding of how green is required to sustain the output of organic carbon cells reductively incorporate nitrate and ammonium and nitrogen. Together, the sugars and amino acids into the organic compounds required for growth.

Plant Adaptation to Environmental Change
Author: Naser A. AnjumPublisher: CABI
ISBN: 1780642733
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 345
Book Description
Plants constantly cope with unfavourable ecosystem conditions, which often prevent them reaching their full genetic potential in terms of growth, development and productivity. This book covers plants' responses to these environmental changes, namely, the modulation of amino acids, peptides and amines to combat both biotic and abiotic stress factors. Bringing together the most recent developments, this book is an important resource for researchers and students of crop stress and plant physiology.
Biosynthesis of Branched Chain Amino Acids
Author: Zeev BarakPublisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN:
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 552
Book Description
This book reflects the growing interest in the pathways of the biosynthesis of branched-chain amino acids. With contributions from various subdisciplines, it represents an extensive state-of-the-art report. Numerous aspects of the biosynthesis of branched-chain amino acids are covered, such as control of gene expression, the interaction among metabolic pathways under physiological conditions and unusual circumstances, and the stereochemical and mechanistic aspects of enzymes involved. It also considers possible applications to biotechnological problems and the development of novel herbicides.
