Epigenetics in Plants of Agronomic Importance: Fundamentals and Applications Transcriptional Regulation and Chromatin Remodelling in Plants

Epigenetics in Plants of Agronomic Importance: Fundamentals and Applications Transcriptional Regulation and Chromatin Remodelling in Plants / edited by Raúl Alvarez-Venegas, Clelia De-la-Peña, Juan Armando Casas-Mollano.

Over the past few decades, chromatin modulation has emerged as an important regulator of gene expression. This second edition provides detailed information on the epigenetic mechanisms in plants, illustrating the value of this research in plants of agronomic importance. It examines recent advances r...
