• written by a world-renowned expert who has worked in the field for 50 years
• covers the field from the initial studies conducted more than a century ago up to recent studies with up-to-date explanations
• describes in details the structure, development, physiology and basic molecular biology of plants’ vascular tissues, their function, regeneration and environmental adaptation
• explores the controlling mechanisms of plant vascular differentiation by continuously moving hormonal signals and their precursors
• discusses the regulation of stem cells and cambium, control of gradients in vascular cell size along the plant, juvenile-adult transition and rejuvenation, grafting, mechanisms of recovery from bending by reaction wood, evolution of vessels and fibers from tracheids, regulation of ring-porous wood evolution, protecting mechanisms against insects and pathogens, parasitism, plant cancer, and more
• helps readers understand the scope and breadth of plant vascular systems in 20 detailed, high-quality chapters
• includes a wealth of outstanding original color photographs and illustrations documenting the formation of vascular tissues
• provides an in-depth understanding of plant biology by studying their vascular tissues
