Produktinformationen zu „Strigolactones - Biology and Applications (PDF)“

Latest research unveiled some new biological concepts, such as a redefinition of plant hormones and their crosstalk, new functional diversity of receptors, evolvement of plants to parasitic life habit, smoke and hormone mirrors, core signaling pathways, and even phloem transport of receptor proteins. Another important aspect of Strigolactones is its developed synthetic chemistry, and the opening of a variety of potential applications in agriculture and medicine.

The book will address teachers, lecturers and (post-) graduate students in biology and agronomy, and will clearly present the role strigolactones play in plantdevelopment, in induction of parasitic plant germination, interaction of plants with soil biota and abiotic stress conditions, prospects of strigolactone biochemistry and evolution, and chemical synthesis of natural strigolactones and analogs, and their potential applications. Glossary and synopses that may ease comprehension of the related terms and concepts will also be included.

Autoren-Porträt

Prof. Hinanit Koltai has been a Senior Research Scientist at the Agricultural Research Organization, Volcani Center, Rishon LeZion, Israel, since 2001. She is a member of the International Parasitic Plant Society, and serves on the Editorial Boards of several international scientific journals. In addition, Prof. Koltai is the author of more than 80 peer-reviewed publications, including more than 30 book chapters.
Prof. Cristina Prandi is a Full Professor of Organic Chemistry at the University of Torino, where she also serves as Deputy Director for Research. Her main interests are in organometallic chemistry, gold catalysis and target oriented synthesis. She has conducted research on the synthesis of bioactive phytohormone analogues, focusing on SAR (Structure Activity Relationship) studies and the design of active derivatives. Recently, she has also investigated the use of plant metabolite analogues for their potential anticancer benefits. She is the author of more than 100 scientific publications and holds three patents.
Prof. C. Prandi and H. Koltai chaired a COST ACTION exclusively dedicated to strigolactones (FA1206 2012-2017, Strigolactones, biological roles and applications).
