Plant Polysaccharides, an exceptional new volume in
Wiley-Blackwell’s successful Annual Plant Reviews series,
covers the polysaccharides and proteins that form the fundamental
architecture of the plant cell wall, and the genes that encode the
cellular machinery that synthesizes them.
The volume focuses on the evolution of the many families of
genes whose products are required to make a particular kind of
polysaccharide, bringing attention to the specific biochemical
properties of the proteins to the level of kinds of sugar linkages
they make.
Beautifully illustrated in full colour throughout, this
exceptional new volume provides cutting edge up-to-date information
on such important topics as cell wall biology, composition and
biosynthesis, glycosyltransferases, hydroxyproline-rich
glycoproteins, enzymatic modification of plant cell wall
polysaccharides, glycan engineering in transgenic plants, and
polysaccharide nanobiotechnology.
Drawing together some of the world’s leading experts in
these areas, the editor, Peter Ulvskov, has provided a landmark
volume that is essential reading for plant and crop scientists,
biochemists, molecular biologists and geneticists. All libraries in
universities and research establishments
where plant sciences, agriculture, biological, biochemical and
molecular sciences are studied and taught should have copies of
this important volume.
