Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Seeds have long been harvested as a source of protein, oil, starch, and animal feed. This edited volume brings together authoritative writings on the three groups of seed storage compounds--proteins, lipids, and starch--and offers the most up-to-date account of their structure, biosynthesis,
and modes of deposition available. The book also sheds light on compound interactions and on the mechanisms by which plants regulate the partitioning of carbon into lipid or starch. Finally, it discusses opportunities for the genetic engineering of plants either to manipulate the structures of the
major seed storage compounds or to produce novel products. The book, which provides a synopsis of the field's exciting new developments not previously brought together in one easily accessible volume, will be of interest to students and researchers of plant physiology and biochemistry.
