Publisher's Synopsis
Methods in Plant Biochemistry is an authoritative reference on current techniques in the various fields of plant biochemical research. Each volume in the series, under the expert guidance of a guest editor, addresses a particular group of plant compounds. Each describes the historical background and the current, most useful metods of analysis. The volumes include detailed discussions of the protocols and suitability of each technique. Case treatments, diagrams, chemical structures, reference data, and properties are featured along with a full list of references to the specialist literature.
