N1  - Rev. ed. of: Plant anatomy / Katherine Esau. 2nd. ed. 1965; Includes bibliographical references and indexes; Cover -- Contents -- Preface -- Acknowledgments -- General References -- Chapter 1 Structure and Development of the Plant Body-An Overview -- Internal Organization of the Plant Body -- The Body of a Vascular Plant Is Composed of Three Tissue Systems -- Structurally Stem, Leaf, and Root Differ Primarily in the Relative Distribution of the Vascular and Ground Tissues -- Summary of Types of Cells and Tissues -- Development of the Plant Body -- The Body Plan of the Plant Is Established during Embryogenesis -- With Germination of the Seed, the Embryo Resumes Growth and Gradually Develops into an Adult Plant -- REFERENCES -- Chapter 2 The Protoplast: Plasma Membrane, Nucleus, and Cytoplasmic Organelles -- Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Cells -- Cytoplasm -- Plasma Membrane -- Nucleus -- Cell Cycle -- Plastids -- Chloroplasts Contain Chlorophyll and Carotenoid Pigments -- Chromoplasts Contain Only Carotenoid Pigments -- Leucoplasts Are Nonpigmented Plastids -- All Plastids Are Derived Initially from Proplastids -- Mitochondria -- Peroxisomes -- Vacuoles -- Ribosomes -- REFERENCES -- Chapter 3 The Protoplast: Endomembrane System, Secretory Pathways, Cytoskeleton, and Stored Compounds -- Endomembrane System -- The Endoplasmic Reticulum Is a Continuous, Three-dimensional Membrane System That Permeates the Entire Cytosol -- The Golgi Apparatus Is a Highly Polarized Membrane System Involved in Secretion -- Cytoskeleton -- Microtubules Are Cylindrical Structures Composed of Tubulin Subunits -- Actin Filaments Consist of Two Linear Chains of Actin Molecules in the Form of a Helix -- Stored Compounds -- Starch Develops in the Form of Grains in Plastids -- The Site of Protein Body Assembly Depends on Protein Composition -- Oil Bodies Bud from Smooth ER Membranes by an Oleosin-mediated Process -- Tannins Typically Occur in Vacuoles but Also Are Found in Cell Walls -- Crystals of Calcium Oxalate Usually Develop in Vacuoles but Also Are Found in the Cell Wall and Cuticle -- Silica Most Commonly Is Deposited in Cell Walls -- REFERENCES -- Chapter 4 Cell Wall -- Macromolecular Components of the Cell Wall -- Cellulose Is the Principal Component of Plant Cell Walls -- The Cellulose Microfibrils Are Embedded in a Matrix of Noncellulosic Molecules -- Callose Is a Widely Distributed Cell Wall Polysaccharide -- Lignins Are Phenolic Polymers Deposited Mainly in Cell Walls of Supporting and Conducting Tissues -- Cutin and Suberin Are Insoluble Lipid Polymers Found Most Commonly in the Protective Surface Tissues of the Plant -- Cell Wall Layers -- The Middle Lamella Frequently Is Difficult to Distinguish from the Primary Wall -- The Primary Wall Is Deposited While the Cell Is Increasing in Size -- The Secondary Wall Is Deposited inside the Primary Wall Largely, If Not Entirely, after the Primary Wall Has Stopped Increasing in Surface Area -- Pits and Primary Pit-Fields -- Origin of Cell Wall during Cell Division -- Cytokinesis Occurs by the Formation of a Phragmoplast and Cell Plate -- Initially Callose Is the Principal Cell Wall Polysaccharide Present in the Developing Cell Plate -- The Preprophase Band Predicts the Plane of the Future Cell Plate -- Growth of the Cell Wall -- The Orientation of Cellulose M
N2  - This revision of the now classic Plant Anatomy offers a completely updated review of the structure, function, and development of meristems, cells, and tissues of the plant body. The text follows a logical structure-based organization. Beginning with a general overview, chapters then cover the protoplast, cell wall, and meristems, through to phloem, periderm, and secretory structures
