Isoprenoid Synthesis in Plants and Microorganisms by Thomas J. Bach, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters

Isoprenoids are important in primary and secondary metabolism. They have implications in a myriad of physiological processes notably in plants, microorganisms and parasites, and biological activities at the cellular, organism, and ecosystem levels. The importance of isoprenoids in various areas of the scientific world has spurred intense research worldwide. Also their role in \"nutraceuticals\" has stimulated scientific curiosity. Literature on isoprenoids is widely scattered in journals with quite differing readerships and geographic distribution. A comprehensive book on isoprenoids does not exist. Isoprenoid Synthesis in Plants and Microorganisms: New Concepts and Experimental Approachesfills this gap by presenting the latest and the most applicable information on isoprenoids. The most recent TERPNET conference serves as the backdrop and provides much of the inspiration for the topics covered in the book. Additional topics of interest are covered as well, makingIsoprenoid Synthesis in Plants and Microorganisms: New Concepts and Experimental Approachesthe most comprehensive review of isoprenoid synthesis to date. | Isoprenoid Synthesis in Plants and Microorganisms by Thomas J.
