Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book investigates the distribution of chlorophyll and the character of the chlorophyll-containing tissues in perennial desert plants. The topography of the chlorophyll apparatus is examined and compared to that in non-desert plants, with a particular focus on the relationship between the plant's water supply and the distribution of chlorophyll in its tissues. Specific topics addressed include the changes that occur in the chlorophyll apparatus of desert plants as they grow older and as they lose leaves, and the ways in which these changes affect the plants' ability to photosynthesize. The author also explores the significance of the chlorophyll apparatus in the adaptation of desert plants to their environment. Ultimately, this book provides new insights into the physiological and ecological adaptations of desert plants, contributing to our understanding of how these remarkable organisms survive and thrive in one of the Earth's most challenging environments.
