In the embryonic stage of a multicellular organism, precise arrangements of different cell types arise. These cell types eventually become the tissues and organs of the organism if it is an animal, for instance. Developmental biology is the study of this process in both plants and animals and covers the entire development stage of the organism. Current Topics in Developmental Biology provides a comprehensive survey of the major topics in this rapidly advancing field. The volumes are valuable to researchers in animal and plant development as well as to students and professionals who want an introduction to cellular and molecular mechanisms of development. With over thirty years of publication, this series is the longest-running forum for contemporary issues in developmental biology.

Annual Plant Reviews, Endogenous Plant Rhythms

Our knowledge of the circadian clock in plants has advancedconsiderably in recent years and we now have a clearer view of thebiochemical processes making up its mechanism. Recent work providesinsight into the central role played by the circadian system in theregulation of many aspects of metabolism. The multiple systemsinvolved in photoreception have been determined, leading to anunderstanding of how light entrains the internal biological clockto the natural cycle of day and night, and how this impacts on keyevents in the plant lifecycle, such as the photoperiodic regulationof flowering. This book provides a contemporary overview of endogenous plantrhythms for researchers and professionals in the plant sciences. Itwill also serve as a valuable source of reference for the widercircadian community.

The Model Legume Medicago truncatula, 2 Volume Set

Fully covers the biology, biochemistry, genetics, and genomics of Medicago truncatula Model plant species are valuable not only because they lead to discoveries in basic biology, but also because they provide resources that facilitate translational biology to improve crops of economic importance. Plant scientists are drawn to models because of their ease of manipulation, simple genome organization, rapid life cycles, and the availability of multiple genetic and genomic tools. This reference provides comprehensive coverage of the Model Legume Medicago truncatula. It features review chapters as well as research chapters describing experiments carried out by the authors with clear materials and...

Life evolves in a cyclic environment, and to be successful, organisms must adapt not only to their spatial habitat, but also to their temporal habitat. How do plants and animals determine the time of year so they can anticipate seasonal changes in their habitats? In most cases, day length, or photoperiod, acts as the principal external cue for determining seasonal activity. For organisms not living at the bottom of the ocean or deep in a cave, day follows night, and the length of the day changes predictably throughout the year. These changes in photoperiod provide the most accurate signal for predicting upcoming seasonal conditions. Measuring day length allows plants and animals to anticipat...

Current Topics in Developmental Biology

Current Topics in Developmental Biology, Volume 45 surveys the major issues at the forefront of developmental biology. This volume, like others in the serial, is valuable to researchers in the fields of animal and plant development, and to students and other professionals who want an introduction to current topics in cellular and molecular approaches to developmental biology. Chapters on the nervous system, reproductive system, and flowering introduce new models and concepts for understanding these processes. Key Features * Includes development of the nervous and reproductive systems * Covers flowering in plants * Highlights the roles of homeobox-related transcription factors and growth factors in axis and organ development.
