SpringerBriefs in Space Life Sciences,2196-55603-319-93893-2 Chapter 1: Gravity Sensing, Graviorientation and Microgravity -- Chapter 2: Methods for Gravitational Biology Research -- Chapter 3: Gravitaxis in Flagellates and Ciliates -- Chapter 4: Gravitropism in Tip-Growing Rhizoids and Protonemata of Characean Algae -- Chapter 5: Gravitropism in Fungi, Mosses and Ferns -- Chapter 6: Gravitropism in Higher Plants: Cellular Aspects -- Chapter 7: Gravitropism in Higher Plants: Molecular Aspects -- Chapter 8: Bioregenerative Life Support Systems in Space Research.This book summarizes what is currently known about gravity sensing and response mechanisms in microorganisms, fungi, lower and higher plants; starting from the historical eye-opening experiments from the 19th century up to today’s extremely rapid advancing cellular, molecular and biotechnological research. All forms of life are constantly exposed to gravity and it can be assumed that almost all organisms have developed sensors and respond in one way or the other to the unidirectional acceleration force,this books shows us some of these different ways. The book is written for plant biologists and microbiologists as well as scientists interested in space and gravitational biology.SpringerBriefs in Space Life Sciences,2196-5560CytologyAerospace engineeringAstronauticsMicrobiologyBotanyBotanyCell Biologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L16008Aerospace Technology and Astronauticshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T17050Microbiologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L23004Plant Scienceshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L24000Cytology.Aerospace engineering.Astronautics.Microbiology.Botany.Botany.Cell Biology.Aerospace Technology and Astronautics.Microbiology.Plant Sciences.571.6Braun Markusauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1057743Böhmer Maikauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autHäder Donat-Peterauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autHemmersbach Ruthauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autPalme Klausauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autBOOK9910298402803321Gravitational Biology I2494379UNINA
