Plant diversity and evolution : genotypic and phenotypic variation in higher plants /
"An understanding of plant diversity at both the genome and phenome levels is important for biodiversity conservation and plant breeding. Recent advances in genomics have also resulted in a growth of the subject of plant functional genomics. This book brings these areas together by reviewing as...
