Books by Bruce Schaffer

This book provides a comprehensive reference source on the responses of temperate fruit crops to the environment. It addresses plant responses to abiotic variables (light, temperature, water, wind, salinity, and air pollution) and integrates whole plant physiology with production horticulture.

Discusses the influence of environmental factors, such as irradiance, temperature, water and salinity on plant physiology and on vegetative and reproductive growth. This book focuses on a single crop, or a group of genetically or horticulturally related crop, and is divided into subsections that address individual environmental factors.
