  • The Sentient Cell

    The Cellular Foundations of Consciousness

    by Arthur S. Reber, Frantisek Baluska, William Miller ...
    All species, extant and extinct, from the simplest unicellular prokaryotes to humans, have an existential consciousness. Without sentience, the first cells that emerged some 4 billion years ago would have been evolutionary dead-ends, unable to survive in the chaotic, dangerous environment in which life first appeared and evolved. In this book, Arthur Reber's theory, the Cellular Basis of ... Read more

  • Neurotransmitters in Plant Signaling and Communication

    Edited by František Baluška, Soumya Mukherjee, Akula Ramakrishna ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    This book provides a comprehensive update on the recent developments concerning the role of plant neurotransmitters in signaling and communication. Physiological investigations over the past few decades have demonstrated that plants employ neurotransmitters in various signaling pathways. Plant-based neurotransmitters (serotonin, melatonin, dopamine, acetylcholine, and GABA) share biochemical ... Read more

  • Memory and Learning in Plants

    Edited by Frantisek Baluska, Monica Gagliano, Guenther Witzany ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    This book assembles recent research on memory and learning in plants. Organisms that share a capability to store information about experiences in the past have an actively generated background resource on which they can compare and evaluate coming experiences in order to react faster or even better. This is an essential tool for all adaptation purposes. Such memory/learning skills can be found ... Read more

  • Plant-Environment Interactions

    From Sensory Plant Biology to Active Plant Behavior

    Edited by František Baluška ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Our image of plants is changing dramatically away from passive entities merely subject to environmental forces and organisms that are designed solely for the accumulation of photosynthate. Plants are revealing themselves to be dynamic and highly sensitive organisms that actively and competitively forage for limited resources, both above and below ground, organisms that accurately gauge their ...

  • Polar Auxin Transport

    Edited by Rujin Chen, František Baluška ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    The importance of the plant growth regulator auxin for plant growth has long been recognized, even before the discovery of its chemical structures in the early 20th century. Physiological studies in the decades since have demonstrated that auxin is unidirectionally transported in plants, a process dubbed polar auxin transport. It is the polar auxin transport process that generates a local auxin ... Read more

  • Biocommunication of Plants

    Edited by Günther Witzany, František Baluška ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Plants are sessile, highly sensitive organisms that actively compete for environmental resources both above and below the ground. They assess their surroundings, estimate how much energy they need for particular goals, and then realise the optimum variant. They take measures to control certain environmental resources. They perceive themselves and can distinguish between ‘self’ and ‘non-self’. They ... Read more

    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)

    $197.99 USD

  • Plant Communication from an Ecological Perspective

    Edited by Velemir Ninkovic, František Baluška ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Since the concept of allelopathy was introduced almost 100 years ago, research has led to an understanding that plants are involved in complex communicative interactions. They use a battery of different signals that convey plant-relevant information within plant individuals as well as between plants of the same species or different species. The 13 chapters of this volume discuss all these topics ... Read more

  • Aluminum Stress Adaptation in Plants

    Edited by Sanjib Kumar Panda, František Baluška ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    This book is an overview of our current understanding of aluminium toxicity and tolerance in plants. It covers all relevant aspects from molecular and cellular biology, to genetic approaches, root biology and plant physiology. The contribution of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi to alleviating aluminium toxicity is also discussed. Over 40% of total agricultural land resources are acidic in nature, ... Read more

  • Integrated G Proteins Signaling in Plants

    Edited by Shaul Yalovsky, Alan Jones, František Baluška ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    This volume focuses on the structure, function and regulation of plant signaling G proteins and their function in hormonal pathways, polarity, differentiation, morphogenesis and responses to biotic and abiotic stresses.Plants are sessile organisms that need to continuously coordinate between external and internal cues. This coordination requires the existence of hubs to allow cross-talk between ... Read more
