Download or read book Molecular Plant Development written by Peter Westhoff and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1998 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interest in developmental biology has exploded in recent years with the use of molecular techniques. There are some excellent textbooks on animal systems, but they make only a token gesture towards plants. For this book, Peter Westhoff and his strong team of co-authors have taken great painsto 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 chosendeliberately 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.
