Plant Functional Genomics (Crop Science) - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

Discover cutting-edge knowledge for engineering a more productive and environment-friendly agriculture!

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.

Plant Functional Genomics will increase your understanding of gene networks and systems rules, as well as gene expression during specific conditions or development or treatments. This important resource contains a wealth of data generated by various plant genome sequencing projects, including the newest results from experiments with Arabidopsis thaliana?the first plant to be completely sequenced. This book also contains innovative research on:

• T-DNA mutagenesis
  
• transcriptomics and metabolic profiling in plants
  
• large-scale yeast two-hybrid analyses
  
• the exceptional model system of Chlamydomonas genomics
  
• functional genomics in rice, maize, and Physcomitrella
  
• prospects for functional genomics in a new model grass
  
• chloroplast and plant mitochondrial proteomics
  
• plant transporters
  
• so much more
