The Molecular and Physiological Basis of Nutrient Use Efficiency in Crops provides both a timely summary of the latest advances in the field as well as anticipating directions for future research. The Molecular and Physiological Basis of Nutrient Use Efficiency in Crops bridges the gap between agronomic practice and molecular biology by linking underpinning molecular mechanisms to the physiological and 606 $aCrops$xNutrition 606 $aCrops$xNutrition$xMolecular aspects 606 $aCrops$xNutrition$xPhysiology 606 $aPlant nutrients 606 $aCrop yields 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aCrops$xNutrition. 615 0$aCrops$xNutrition$xMolecular aspects. 615 0$aCrops$xNutrition$xPhysiology. 615 0$aPlant nutrients. 615 0$aCrop yields. 676 $a631.8 676 $a631.811 702 $aHawkesford$b Malcolm J. 702 $aBarraclough$b Peter$g(Peter B.), 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910137564903321 996 $aThe molecular and physiological basis of nutrient use efficiency in crops$92107787 997 $aUNINA
