This exciting new textbook presents current knowledge of plant biology, highlighting important topics for future development and research. Starting with the evolutionary history of plants, the book addresses the dynamic nature and regulation of plant genomes, the conversion of products of photosynthesis into the vast diversity of molecules that comprise the plant body, and the nature and coordination of growth, development, and reproduction of the plant. The book next describes how these fundamental properties of plants are impacted by their surroundings – by the physical environment including light, day length, and temperature, and by interactions with other organisms such as pests and pathogens, pollinators, and microbes that supply nutrients. Finally, the book outlines the history, importance, and future of human interactions with plants.
Key features:
- Each chapter is prefaced with Learning Objectives directly related to the text that follows as a convenient scene-setter for both students and instructors
- Throughout the book, text descriptions are accompanied by informative, high-quality illustrations aiding understanding of complex concepts and mechanisms
- Extensive online material expands and enhances understanding of many of the topics covered, allowing students to test their knowledge of chapter content and prepare for formal examinations
Carefully designed for, and written at, a level accessible to all undergraduate biologists who have a grounding in the fundamentals of molecular biology and biochemistry, Essential Plant Biology is also a valuable resource for postgraduates in plant research. For lecturers, the breadth of coverage and clear organization facilitate the teaching of both complete courses in plant science and more focused topics in plant biology.

Jonathan D. G. Jones is a Senior Group Leader at the Sainsbury Laboratory, Norwich, UK. He received his PhD at Cambridge Genetics Dept and the Plant Breeding Institute. His group investigates how plant immune receptors detect pathogen effectors and activate defense, and also how best to use this knowledge to protect crops.
Lars Østergaard is Sherardian Professor of Botany at the University of Oxford, UK and a former group leader at the John Innes Centre, Norwich UK. He received his Ph.D. from the University of Copenhagen, Denmark. His research is focussed on genetic and hormonal interactions during plant reproductive tissue development.
Robert Sablowski is a Group Leader at the John Innes Centre, Norwich, UK. He obtained his PhD in Plant Molecular Biology from the University of East Anglia and was a postdoctoral fellow at Caltech. His research has focused on growth and development of meristems and flowers, and more recently on the links between growth and division in plant cells.
Colwyn M. Thomas is Course Director for the M.Sc in Plant genetics and Crop Improvement at John Innes Centre, Norwich, UK. He has 25 years of experience teaching genetics and plant biology, primarily at the University of East Anglia, Norwich. He has a PhD in plant virology from the University of Wales which was followed by post-doctoral research in plant-pathogen interactions at the Sainsbury Laboratory, Norwich, UK.

Droit de rétractation
Instructions for revocation
Right of withdrawal for the sale of goods
Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
Criteria for exclusion or expiry
The revocation right is not available for contracts
-
for delivery of products, which are not prefabricated and for whose manufacturing an individual selection or stipulation by the consumer is important or which are clearly tailored to the personal requirements of the consumer;
-
for delivery of products, which can spoil quickly or whose use-by date would be exceeded quickly;
-
for delivery of alcoholic drinks, whose price was agreed at the time of concluding the contract, which however can be delivered 30 days after the conclusion of the contract at the earliest and whose current value depends on the fluctuations in the market, on which the entrepreneur has no influence;
-
