Tip growth in plant and fungal cells /

Tip Growth in Plant and Fungal Cells covers the basis of the cellular processes of tip growing plants. The book discusses the role of cell wall architecture in fungal tip growth generation; the enzymology of tip growth in fungi; and the electrobiology of apical growth. The text also describes the ro...
