Riassunto

This volume focuses on emerging strategies and opportunities for crop improvement by gene transfer, and the impact of genetic technologies on fundamental analysis of molecular mechanisms governing plant development and adaptation to environmental stress. It highlights recent success in engineering resistance to herbicides, insect pests and viruses, as well as prospects for engineering resistance to microbial attack and physical stresses such as heavy metals and extremes of temperature. The book documents rapid advances in dissecting signal transduction pathways and mechanisms for developmental and environmental stress-induced regulation of gene expression. Exciting new biotechnological applications such as microprojectile bombardment are also included.
