Chapman and Hall (Verlag)
978-0-412-60060-9 (ISBN)
Preface. Advantages of Arabidopsis for cloning plant genes. Transgene expression and agronomic improvement of rice. Plastid engineering in land plants: a conservative genome is open to change. Transcriptional control of plant storage protein genes. Plant pre-mRNA splicing and splicing components. Control of photosynthetic carbon fixation and partitioning: how can use of genetically manipulated plants improve the nature and quality of information about regulation? Genetic engineering of oxidative stress resistance in higher plants. Control of ripening. Production of industrial materials in transgenic plants. Complementation and disruption of viral processes in transgenic plants. Chitinase gene expression in transgenic plants: a molecular approach to understanding plant defence responses. Virus and fungal resistance: from laboratory to field. Approaches in insect resistance using transgenic plants. Commercialization of genetically engineered crops. The production and uses of genetically transformed plants: concluding remarks. Index.
The book is handsomely produced...Here we have a collection of articles which are written in an approachable style, which individually provide clear summaries of their sub-topics, and which taken as a whole provide a wide-ranging survey of plant genetic engineering as of 1993...the reviewer has found that chapters from this volume have been well received by second- and thrid-year undergraduates as topics for essays and tutorial discussions. Possibly first year postgraduates would also find this book a useful survey of this rapidly widening area of research...one that can be warmly recommended to University, College and Departmental libraries. - Heredity; ... a very good summary of this important area of plant science. - Geological Magazine; This is a most readible collectin of papers, still very much relevant to developments in crop bioengineering... Plant Growth Regulation.
