Overview

These conference proceedings cover recent advances in the field of developmental biology in plants. The developmental processes explored here are mainly focused on photomorphogenesis, flowering time control and the circadian clock. The book will appeal to biologists, academicians, scientists, researchers and students, as well as readers exploring the role of light in controlling various indispensable physiological processes in plants, such as flowering, circadian clock regulations and hormonal regulations. The volume also emphasises several interrelated developmental processes, such as disease development, and molecular events, including the degradation of proteins.
