About the author

Joachim W. Kadereit, geb. 1956 in Hannover, studierte Biologie in Hamburg und Cambridge/DK. 1991 wurde er auf einen Lehrstuhl für Botanik an der Universität Mainz berufen. Dort übernahm er die Leitung des Botanischen Gartens.

Ulrich Lüttge lehrte bis zum Jahr 2004 als Ordinarius am Institut für Botanik der Technischen Universität Darmstadt. Ulrich Lüttges Arbeitsgruppe beschäftigt sich u.a mit Membranphysiologie und -biochemie, circadianer Rhythmik von Photosyntheseprozessen sowie dem antioxidativen Verteidigungssystem der Pflanze.
