To cope with the increasing problems created by agrochemicals such as plant fertilizers, pesticides and other plant protection agents, biological alternatives have been developed over the past years.
This volume addresses the similarities and also the differences in the genomes of soil saprophytes, symbionts, and plant pathogens by using examples of fungal species to illustrate particular principles.
Secretions and emissions in biological systems play important signaling roles within the organism but also in its communications with the surrounding environment.
Our image of plants is changing dramatically away from passive entities merely subject to environmental forces and organisms that are designed solely for the accumulation of photosynthate.
This volume focuses on the structure, function and regulation of plant signaling G proteins and their function in hormonal pathways, polarity, differentiation, morphogenesis and responses to biotic and abiotic stresses.
Advances in Lichens and Non-Flowering Plants Fungal Endophytes Research provides a better understanding of endophytic fungal diversity from lichens and non-flowering plants, and their applications.
