Phytochemistry In The Genomics And Post-genomics Eras (recent Advances In Phytochemistry)

Hardbound. This monograph series is commissioned by the Phytochemical Society of North America (PSNA). The volumes in this series contain articles on developing topics of interest to scientists, students and individuals interested in recent developments in the biochemistry, chemistry and molecular biology of plants. Volume 36 centers on the role of phytochemistry in the rapid developments in biology brought about by the application of large-scale genomics approaches. Genomics has fundamentally altered the way in which we view plant biology, by providing the possibility of taking a global view of cellular processes. Sequencing programs are rapidly documenting the expressed genes of many species, but the big question is what do these genes do? This volume investigates the different approaches to analysing plant gene function. Several functional genomic approaches discussed in this volume, address plant gene function on a large scale. Plants are co
