International Plant Cold Hardiness Seminar 2004 : Hokkaido University),
1 online resource (xi, 256 pages) : illustrations, charts
This book contains 16 papers presenting the latest research findings on plant freezing and chilling stress from major laboratories around the world. They focus on various aspects of molecular genetics and, in many cases, the use of transgenic plants to further our understanding of plant cold hardiness at the molecular level. Other papers include: vernalization genes in winter cereals; global analysis of gene networks to solve complex abiotic stress responses; control of growth and cold acclimatization in silver birch (Betula pendula); and the effect of plasma membrane-associated proteins on the acquisition of freezing tolerance in Arabidopsis thaliana. This book is intended for researchers in plant physiology and plant development, ecology and genetics.
