Pattern Formation in Plant Tissues

Klappentext Of great interest to all those engaged in attempting to understand the principles behind plant development. Zusammenfassung Focusing on the structure of plant tissues! this purpose of this book is to try and predict what should be looked for at a molecular level. Each chapter deals with a defined problem such as the role of hormones as correlative agents! tissue polarization! apical meristems and cell lineages. Inhaltsverzeichnis Preface; 1. Introduction; 2.
