Chemotaxonomie der Pflanzen

Volume 11a forms the first part of the volume which completes the "Chemische Reihe" series. It provides an in-depth treatise on the Leguminosae, to which such economically important crops as clover belong. Hegnauer's "Chemotaxonomie" provides a handbook for those scientific disciplines concerned not only with systematic botany, but with all aspects of the plant world. The text and bibliography aim to reflect present knowledge of the particularities of plant metabolism.
