Phytohormones in Plant Biotechnology and Agriculture: Proceedings of the NATO-Russia Workshop held in Moscow, 12-16 May 2002

The book brings the up-to-date information about some aspects of regulation of flowering, especially about the role of gibberellins; about agricultural aspects of cytokinin functioning, namely their role in yield formation in cereals; about some signalling systems involved in cytokinin, auxin and ethylene signalling. It contains a review on auxin transport and on transgenic plants with modified levels of auxins and several papers concerning hormones and stress or hormones and cellular structures. As the workshop was held in Moscow, the book represents also a good source of information about research in Russia in the field of phytohormones.
