Overview

This book presents a comprehensive survey of progress and current knowledge of those biochemical processes with greater potential for the development of superior cultivars: Photosynthesis, photorespiration, nitrate assimilation, biological nitrogen fixation, and starch and protein synthesis. Each chapter addresses the major features of the physiological processes involved: the identification of rate-limiting steps; regulatory properties of key enzymes; and a discussion of alternatives to overcome the limitations for enhanced crop productivity.
