Produktinformationen zu „Annual Plant Reviews, Volume 20, Flowering and its Manipulation / Annual Plant Reviews (PDF)“
The flowering plants now dominate the terrestrial ecosystems of the
planet, and there are good reasons for supposing that the flower
itself has been a major contributing factor to the spread of the
Angiosperms. The flowers of higher plants not only contain the
organs of plant reproduction but are of fundamental importance in
giving rise to fruits and seeds which constitute a major component
of the human diet.
This volume opens with a chapter describing a model for the
evolution of the Angiosperm flower. Chapters 2 to 5 describe the
core development of the flower and include floral induction, floral
pattering and organ initiation, floral shape and size, and
inflorescence architecture. Chapters 6 to 8 focus on more
specialised aspects of floral development: monoecy, cytoplasmic
male sterility and flowering in perennials. Chapters 9 and 10
address more functional aspects: flower colour and scent. The book
concludes, appropriately, with a chapter on flower
senescence.
Applied aspects are stressed wherever appropriate, and the book
is directed at researchers and professionals in plant genetics,
developmental and molecular biology.
The volume has been designed to complement an earlier volume in
our Annual Plant Reviews series, O'Neill, S. D. and
Roberts, J. A. (2002) Plant Reproduction.
