Description for New Frontiers in Bryology
Hardback. The mosses (Bryophatea, Musci) are a diverse group of land plants. From evolution and development to the homologous recombination and the creation of novel molecular tools, mosses are being used to elucidate fundamental biological processes in plants. This book provides a synopsis of the research using mosses as a model multi-cellular eukaryote. Editor(s): Wood, Andrew J.; Oliver, Melvin J.; Cove, David. Num Pages: 214 pages, 96 black & white illustrations, 8 colour illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: PST. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 14. Weight in Grams: 542.
The mosses (Bryophatea, Musci) are a diverse and widely distributed group of land plants. Mosses are attractive experimental plants because they exhibit the traditional attributes of good model systems (Le. ease of growth & maintenance, fast generation time, and amenable genetics) with the added advantage of a haploid gametophyte that allowed developmental mutants to be recovered with relative ease. In addition, mosses with the ability to tolerate extreme environmental conditions offer realistic models for the analysis of environmental stress-tolerance; particularly when compared to tracheophytes such as Arabidopsis thaliana in which these important plant phenotypes are either not clearly expressed or ...
