Ulteriori informazioni

Plants use resources, i.e. carbon, nutrients, water and energy, either for growth or to defend themselves from biotic and abiotic stresses. This volume provides a timely understanding of resource allocation and its regulation in plants, linking the molecular with biochemical and physiological-level processes. Ecological scenarios covered include competitors, pathogens, herbivores, mycorrhizae, soil microorganisms, carbon dioxide/ozone regimes, nitrogen and light availabilities. The validity of the "Growth-Differentiation Balance Hypothesis" is examined and novel theoretical concepts and approaches to modelling plant resource allocation are discussed. The results presented can be applied in plant breeding and engineering, as well as in resource-efficient stand management in agriculture and forestry.

Info autore

Hans Schnyder, geboren 1956, wuchs in Netstal als viertes von insgesamt elf Geschwistern auf. Schon früh wurde er vom harten Alltag des Bauern- und Älplerlebens geprägt. Bis zum dreißigsten Altersjahr blieb Schnyder der Landwirtschaft treu. Seit einigen Jahren betreibt er ein Expertenbüro für Immobilienbewertungen und Versicherungschadenexpertisen. Hans Schnyder ist verheiratet, hat 3 Söhne, eine Tochter und lebt in Netstal.

Prof. h.c. Dr. Hans Pretzsch - habilitiert in Forstlicher Biometrie, Waldwachstumskunde und Waldmesslehre - ist seit 1994 Ordinarius für Waldwachstumsforschung an der Universität München und Leiter des Bayerischen Ertragskundlichen Versuchswesens. Seine Forschungsschwerpunkte sind Planung, Steuerung und Auswertung von Waldwachstumsversuchen, Diagnose von Wachsstumsstörungen, Waldwachstumsmodellierung und die Entwicklung von Informationssystemen für Wälder. 1991 erhielt Hans Pretzsch den Biometrie-Förderpreis, 2000 erfolgte die Ernennung zum Professor.
