| Summary |
The Volume 23 in the "Advances in Photosynthesis and Respiration" series, this book provides a comprehensive look at the biology of plastids, the multifunctional biosynthetic factories that are unique to plants and algae. It covers various aspects of this large and diverse family of plant and algal organelles |
