Woody plants such as trees have a significant economic and climatic influence on global economies and ecologies.
This completely revised classic book is an up-to-date synthesis of the intensive research devoted to woody
plants published in the second edition, with additional important aspects from the authors' previous book,
Growth Control in Woody Plants. Intended primarily as a reference for researchers, the interdisciplinary
nature of the book makes it useful to a broad range of scientists and researchers from agroforesters,
agronomists, and arborists to plant pathologists and soil scientists.
This third edition provides crutial updates to many chapters, including: responses of plants to
elevated CO2; the process and regulation of cambial growth; photoinhibition and photoprotection
of photosynthesis; nitrogen metabolism and internal recycling, and more. Revised chapters focus on
emerging discoveries of the patterns and processes of woody plant physiology.
Of interest to agroforesters; agronomists; arborists; plant pathologists; ecophysiologists; soil scientists;
students and researchers.
