Flowers evolved to attract pollinators, so new generations of plant can form. But how do plants know when to bloom, and how do they construct their flowers? This book describes what we have learnt of the astonishing genetic and epigenetic processes behind the dazzling variety of flower shapes, colours, and scents.

This collaborative work should be of interest to students and professionals in the field of biochemistry, molecular biology and genetics. The book discusses efforts to map and sequence the genomes of several species, including humans, and illustrates the depth of understanding now provided by state-of-the-art techniques in molecular biology, biochemistry and genetics. The case studies examine in detail how genes operate in complex, multicomponent and interacting systems, applying these studies to a variety of living systems including viral, cellular, and organismal models. How genotypes and...
