{"product_id":"nutrient-acquisition-by-plants-hormoz-bassirirad-9783540241867","title":"Nutrient Acquisition by Plants: An Ecological Perspective","description":"\u003cp\u003eAdaptation and evolution of terrestrial plants depend, to a large extent, on their ability to acquire nutrients. This is a modern and integrative treatment of the mechanisms controlling plant nutrient uptake and how plants respond to changes in the environment. The following key topics are covered: soil nutrient bioavailability; root responses to variations in nutrient supply; nitrogen fixation; regulation of nutrient uptake by internal plant demand; root characteristics; kinetics of nutrient uptake; root architecture; life span; mycorrhizae; responses to climate change. This integrated view helps us to understand the mechanisms that govern present-day plant communities and is indispensable in models designed to predict the response of plants to a changing climate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Hormoz Bassirirad\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3540241868\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783540241867\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Springer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/20\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 348\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.64lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.37h x 6.40w x 0.93d","brand":"Hormoz Bassirirad","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48486947422463,"sku":"9783540241867","price":219.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3f9f4f03-757d-4c2b-afe8-2d6963f9998e.jpg?v=1778057327","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/nutrient-acquisition-by-plants-hormoz-bassirirad-9783540241867","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
