Informationen zum Autor Dario Leister Klappentext In Plant Functional Genomics! you'll find a cross-section of state-of-the-art research on the biological function of plant genes and how they work together in health and disease. World-leading scientists in the field present breakthrough techniques! discuss the results of projects aimed at dissecting particular plant functions! and provide an overview on the state of functional genomics for several plant and plant-related species. With figures! tables! and illustrations! this book will help scientists! researchers! and advanced students in botany find new ways of creating novel plant forms to better serve the needs of a rapidly expanding human population. Zusammenfassung A cross section of state of the art research on the biological function of plant genes and how they work together in health and disease.
