Contents Notes Methods of Plant Electrophysiology -- Historical Introduction to Plant Electrophysiology -- Electrochemical Methods and Measuring Transmembrane Ion Gradients -- Non-Invasive Microelectrode Ion Flux Measurements In Plant Stress Physiology -- Electrochemical Sensor Applications to the Study of Molecular Physiology and Analyte Flux in Plants -- Use of Non-Invasive Ion-Selective Microelectrode Techniques for the Study of Plant Development -- Use of Double Barrel Micropipettes to Voltage-Clamp Plant and Fungal Cells -- New Solid State Microsensors in Plant Physiology -- Electrophysiological Characterization of Plant Cation Channels -- Magnetic Measurements in Plant Electrophysiology -- Plant Electrophysiology -- Electrogenic Pumps -- Effects of Electrical and Electromagnetic Fields on Plants and Related Topics -- Long-Distance Electrical Signaling and Physiological Functions in Higher Plants -- Potassium Homeostasis in Salinized Plant Tissues -- Electrophysiology in Mechanosensing and Wounding Response -- Electrochemical Potential Around the Plant Root in Relation to Metabolism and Growth Acceleration -- Electrophysiology of Turgor Regulation in Charophyte Cells -- Electrical Signals in Plants: Facts and Hypotheses -- Electrophysiology of Plant Gravitropism -- Electrochemistry of Plant Life -- Electrophysiology and Plant Responses to Biotic Stress -- Control of Plant Development by Hydro-Electrochemical Signal Transduction: a Means for Understanding Photoperiodic Flower Induction. As a pioneering work on plant electrophysiology, this exciting reference compiles new findings from the work of internationally renowned experts in the fields of electrophysiology, bio-electrochemistry, biophysics, signal transduction, phloem transport, tropisms, ion channels, plant electrochemistry, and membrane transport. The book starts with a historical introduction to plant electrophysiology, followed by two distinct parts. The first one deals with methods in plant electrophysiology, including, amongst others, measuring membrane potentials and ion fluxes, path-clamp technique, and electrochemical sensors. The second part covers experimental results and their theoretical interpretation.
