Reviews

`...Seed Proteins can be recommended to a wide range of readers, not only to plant biochemists and molecular biologists, but also to plant breeders, seed testers, agronomists, phytochemists and physiologists. It should be a standard volume in the library of all those dealing with seed in the widest sense.' Journal of Plant Physiology, 152:4 (2000)
