Description

Molecular plant pathology has directly benefited from advances in modern molecular techniques. These techniques have been applied both to pathogens and plants, enhancing our understanding of the organisms themselves and of the complex interactions which determine compatability between them and their host plants. This volume and its companion together provide a comprehensive guide to the latest molecular techniques as well as the established approaches to the subject. Topics covered in in this second volume include: analysis of defence-related compounds; strategies for cloning disease resistance genes; characterization of elicitors; and signal transduction pathways. Researchers in plant science, molecular biology and related areas should find the two volumes of "Molecular Plant Pathology: A Practical Approach" to be an invaluable experimental resource for this exciting and fast-moving field, providing a wealth of easy-to-follow protocols supported by expert advice and guidance.Table of ContentPart 1 Defence response (gene products): callose and callose synthase, H.
