Description

The transition from vegetative to reproductive growth is one of the most important developmental changes in plants. Although the physiology of the process has been well documented, the molecular basis has only recently begun to be determined. This book reviews our current knowledge of the molecular biology and genetics of flowering, a subject that is rapidly being recognized for both its fundamental importance and its biotechnological exploitation. It will interest research workers and advanced students in plant genetics and plant molecular biology.
