Plant development is a continuous process occurring throughout the life cycle, with similar regulatory mechanisms acting at different stages and in different parts of the plant. Rather than focussing on the life cycle, the book is structured around these underlying mechanisms, using case studies to provide students with a framework to understand the many factors, both environmental and endogenous, that combine to regulate development and g 606 $aPlants$xDevelopment 615 0$aPlants$xDevelopment. 676 $a571.8/2 700 $aLeyser$b Ottoline$01500713 701 $aDay$b Stephen$01500714 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910780606403321 996 $aMechanisms in plant development$93727518 997 $aUNINA
