Meristematic Tissues in Plant Growth and Development (Biological Sciences Series)

By Bruce Veit

An overview of the role of meristematic tissues in plant growth and development, with an emphasis on advances of the last decade. Meristematic tissues are examined as an anatomically and functionally defined tissue type in plants, with consideration given to their origin, maintenance and function. Authors pay special attention to the molecular mechanisms underlying meristem formation and maintenance, while at the same time integrating them with existing physiological and anatomical information. This work is aimed at researchers and professionals in plant genetics, developmental biology, molecular biology and physiology.
