Genes Involved in Plant Defense (Plant Gene Research)
Description
Product Description
The co-evolution of plants and microbes has led to an elaborate system of genes involved in recognition, attack and defense. This volume deals with these genes and regulation of their expression. The topic is treated broadly ranging from considerations of population genetics to the identification of defense-related genes and their regulation.
Review
"... highly recommended to the active researcher in molecular plant pathology who needs a lucid overview of the key areas in the field ... a readily accessible introduction to the field for those teaching advanced level courses ... The contributions are of very high quality ...” Trends in Genetics "... a milestone from which future progress towards understanding disease resistance in plants will be measured ...” Trends in Microbiology
