This book summarizes our present knowledge and understanding of the genetics of higher plants. There has been no book treatment of basic plant genetics in recent times, and such a synthesis has been much needed. The focus in Genetics of Flowering Plants is on the nature and action of genes, gene systems, linkage systems, and genetic systems. There are chapters on sex determination, mosaicism, aberrant segregation ratios, multifactorial linkage, translocation heterozygotes, recombination systems, and many other topics. The book concludes with a short but provocative discussion of the place of plant genetics in biology. Wherever possible, the author relates the evidence of plant genetics to the findings and concepts in other branches of genetics-microbial genetics and drosophila genetics, for example.
