Developmental Genetics and Plant Evolution

This benchmark text integrates the recent revolution in the molecular-developmental genetics of plants with mainstream evolutionary thought. Developmental Genetics and Plant Evolution discusses our increasing understanding of gene function and expression, along with modern phylogenies. It integrates morphological and molecular data to highlight specific key transitions in plant evolution that warrant additional intensive study. Furthermore, it explores increasing knowledge of the physical expression of plant development from disciplines such as anatomy and paleobotany. Rather than focus on the technical aspects of plant genomics, this book provides genuinely integrated explanations of plant evolution.
