Many vegetable crops represent high value products and so it is essential to have a clear understanding of the physiology that lies behind successful production, as this enables the crop to be managed in the most effective way. Several vegetables are also used as model plants in physiological research and therefore there is a need to bring together the physiology of these crops in one volume. Leading research workers from the USA and Europe associated with each particular crop are brought together in this
