About this book
Phloem: Molecular Cell Biology, Systemic Communication, Biotic Interactions is
a timely collection of research on the cellular and molecular biology of this plant
vascular tissue. Recent advances in phloem research have revealed the centrality of
this plant tissue to whole plant development and physiology. Building on advances
made through developments of new analytical technologies, this book will provide readers
with a current and comprehensive reference on the role of phloem in plant growth and
development. Collecting the work of a global team of leading researchers, Phloem
will provide the reader with a valuable synthesis of the latest research in a single
volume.
