by PeterWesthoff (Author)
Interest in developmental biology has exploded in recent years with the use of molecular techniques. There are various textbooks on animal systems, which often make only a token gesture towards plants. For this book, Peter Westhoff and his team of co-authors have taken pains to prepare a clear, integrated textbook for undergraduate and graduate students studying the molecular and developmental biology of plants. Pedagogical features include boxes and definitions, two-colour text and illustrations throughout, and an extensive glossary. A short format has been chosen deliberately to keep the information concise while building on basic knowledge which is treated in more elementary textbooks and referring to additional work in a commented bibliography. The book is intended for advanced undergraduate and graduate students of plant cell and molecular biology, plant development and general plant sciences.
