Seed Storage Compounds by Peter R Shewry

A definitive up-to-date account of the major seed storage products This volume brings together experts on the three groups of seed storage compounds: proteins, lipids, and starch. It provides a much-needed summary of the current state of knowledge of the biosynthesis and cell biology of the compounds. It also discusses their interactions, and the mechanisms by which the plant may regulate the partitioning of carbon into lipid or starch. The book provides a synopsis of the exciting new developments in this field not previously brought together in one easily accessible volume.
'the book is to be highly recommended.. The range of treatment and the depth of detail in many articles will have wide appeal. Its relevance for seed scientists, plant physiologists, biotechnologists and agronomists should guarantee a wide popularity.' Michael Black, Seed Science Review (1994) 4
