Springer Phytohormones in Plant Biotechnology and Agriculture

Explore the fundamental role of phytohormones in plant sciences through this comprehensive collection of research. As key systems that integrate metabolic and developmental events, phytohormones regulate how plants respond to external factors, directly affecting crop yield and quality. This volume presents the proceedings from the NATO-Russia Workshop held in Moscow, providing a deep look into the scientific advancements made in the field. Readers will find detailed insights into the molecular mechanisms that drive phytohormone action. This knowledge is supported by rapid developments in plant molecular genetics, covering significant research areas including ethylene and brassinosteroids. This book serves as an essential resource for professionals and researchers focused on plant biotechnology, agriculture, and the genetic mechanisms that influence plant growth and development.
