Plant Physics
Av Karl J. Niklas, Hanns–christof Spatz
Häftad, 2014
450 kr
Lägg i varukorg
From Galileo, who used the hollow stalks of grass to demonstrate the idea that peripherally located construction materials provide most of the resistance to bending forces, to Leonardo da Vinci, whose illustrations of the parachute are alleged to be based on his study of the dandelion's pappus and …
Plant Evolution
An Introduction to the History of Life
Häftad, 2016
475 kr
Lägg i varukorg
Although plants comprise more than 90% of all visible life, and land plants and algae collectively make up the most morphologically, physiologically, and ecologically diverse group of organisms on earth, books on evolution instead tend to focus on animals. This organismal bias has led to an …

The Scaling of Form and Process
Inbunden, 1994
1535 kr
Lägg i varukorg
Allometry, the study of the growth rate of an organism's parts in relation to the whole, has produced various results in research on animals. This text applies allometry to studies of the evolution, morphology, physiology and reproduction of plants. The author covers a broad spectrum of plant life, …

This text provides a comprhensive synthesis of modern evolutionary biology as it relates to plants. It recounts the saga of plant life from its origins to the radiation of the flowering plants. Through computer-generated "walks" the book arrives at plant forms strikingly similar to actual living …
Plant Biomechanics
An Engineering Approach to Plant Form and Function
Häftad, 1992
611 kr
Lägg i varukorg
In this first comprehensive treatment of plant biomechanics, Karl J. Niklas analyzes plant form and provides a far deeper understanding of how form is a response to basic physical laws. He examines the ways in which these laws constrain the organic expression of form, size, and growth in a variety …
