Plant Transporters, Volume 87, the latest release in the Advances in Botanical Research series,brings together the experiences and critical information teachers, researchers and managers must consider from scientific and legal points-of-view as they relate to biotechnology. New chapters in this updated volume include sections on P-type ATPases, ABC transporters, Nitrate transport, Metal transporters, Hormone transporters, Plant aquaporins, Ion channel regulation in guard cells, Ion transport in pollen tube growth, Xylem loading under stress, and Transporters during arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis.
1. The ABC of ABC Transporters Baptiste Pierman, Marc Boutry and François Lefèvre 2. Plant Aquaporins Lionel Verdoucq and Christophe Maurel 3. Heavy Metal Pumps in Plants: Structure, Function and Origin Jeppe Thulin Østerberg and Michael Palmgren 4. Metal Transport in the Developing Plant Seed Seckin Eroglu 5. Transporters and Mechanisms of Hormone Transport in Arabidopsis Rashed Abualia, Eva Benkova and Benoît Lacombe 6. Root Nitrate Uptake Laurence Lejay and Alain Gojon 7. The Regulation of Ion Channels and Transporters in the Guard Cell Brice Roux and Nathalie Leonhardt 8. The Pollen Plasma Membrane Permeome Converts Transmembrane Ion Transport Into Speed Heidi Pertl-Obermeyer, Peter Lackner, John W.C. Dunlop and Gerhard Obermeyer 9. Xylem Ion Loading and Its Implication for Plant Abiotic Stress Tolerance Tetsuya Ishikawa, Tracey A. Cuin, Nadia Bazihizina and Sergey Shabala 10.
