Bioenergetic Processes of Cyanobacteria: From Evolutionary Singularity to Ecological Diversity by Guenter A. Peschek
English | June 8, 2011 | ISBN: 940070352X | 720 Pages | PDF | 67 MB
This publication is unique among a number of books on cyanobacteria because it focuses on the bioenergetics of these widespread organisms which are the evolutionary prerequisite for the development of all higher forms of life on our "blue" planet. The book primarily addresses questions of energy conversion by the fundamental bioenergetic processes: (oxygenic) photosynthesis, (aerobic) respiration, and (anaerobic) fermentation which uniquely occur together in these prokaryotic cells.
