Annual Plant Reviews

"The book represents a modern, well-structured and up-to-date collection of information in a field that has rapidly advanced during the last decades, and will acquire additional impact in the field of plant development and morphogenesis." (Peter Nick, Molecular Cell Biology, Institute of Botany, University of Karlsruhe, Germany in Journal of Plant Physiology 162 (2005)).

Professor Patrick Hussey is in the Department of Biological Sciences, University of Durham, UK.
