"Plant Molecular Biology" is designed to provide up to date texts for all Indian University. The emphasis of the text is on the Molecular biology of plant. The rapid pace at which biological knowledge has grown in the last few decades, have now collected a very thorough writing of large sections of the book, and the task has been quite challenging in the face of an accumulation of facts that on occasion has seemed quite overwhelming. It is not possible now to interpret many aspects of plant biology without reference to molecular biology, even when one is basically interested in functioning at the organismal level. This applies particularly to the developmental aspects of plant molecular biology. This book will serve as an excellent reference material and practical guide for scientists, teachers, students, planners and administrators interested in plant physiology, botany and agriculture science.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR Charlotte Johnson
Charlotte Jhonson is a globe-trotting botanist who has compiled some of the world's most elaborate and expensive plan books. He returned to his native country three years ago after living in the South Africa. As a Plant Hunter, he searched vast regions and traveled to remote islands. He holds a B.Sc. degree in Botany and M.Sc. degrees in both Chemistry and in Plant Science from Worcester Polytechnic Institute in Massachusetts. His career spans 26 years in the chemical industry and related fields. His knowledge and the specimens he brought back befitted Horticulture as well as Indoor Gardeners. He found new species of Chinese evergreens, dracaena, Begonia exotica, Sansevieria of Ceylon and the first white African Violet. His comprehensive illustrated inventories of the world's flora were expensive, though the cost did not seem to discourage aficionados. His trips, the recalled, had their close calls, from unforgiving terrain to tribes who resented his intrusion in New Guinea. He visited the giant lobelias of Mount Kilimanjaro, Azaleas and Rhododendrons of Sikkim and the bamboos of China; where he savored the country's ornamental Horticulture.
