This exciting volume Plants as Factories for Protein Production, edited by Drs. Elizabeth E. Hood and John A. Howard, contains chapters by experts in the field of molecular farming. The information within addresses the leading plant systems for recombinant protein production, as well as the progress being made in leading product categories - human pharmaceuticals, animal health, and industrial enzymes. More importantly, the book includes chapters that address the hot topics of production, containment, regulatory, and legal aspects that are quickly coming to the forefront of the industry. This...

A whole host of motivations are driving the development of the -renewables- industry-- ranging from the desire to develop sustainable energy resources to the reduction of dangerous greenhouse gases that contribute to global warming. All energy utilized on the earth is ultimately derived from the sun through photosynthesis--the only truly renewable commodity.

As concerns regarding increasing energy prices, global warming and renewable resources continue to grow, so has scientific discovery into agricultural biomass conversion. Plant Biomass Conversion addresses both the...

For over 10 years, TMV -based vectors have been used as plant expression tools to examine gene regulation and function, protein processing, pathogen elicitors, to manipulate biosynthetic pathways, and to produce high levels of enzymes, proteins, or peptides of interest in different locations in a plant cell. TMV vectors often exhibit genetic stability of foreign RNA sequences through multiple passages in plant hosts. Foreign coding sequences can be expressed in plants where the stability, intracellular fate and enzymatic or biological activities of the recombinant proteins can be rapidly...
