Description:

For the first time in a single volume, researchers from seven countries review new knowledge and studies on programmed cell death (PCD) as it applies to plants, and draw comparisons with systems in animals and unicellular organisms. Chapters cover the major pathways of PCD in plants and animals, describe the cell death events in reproductive and vegetative tissues, outline examples of PCD in response to abiotic and biotic stress, and present future applications and methods. Programmed Cell Death in Plants serves as the source of ideas for the development of new research strategies and model systems regarding the phenomenon of PCD in plants.
