Flowering and fruiting are key processes in the biology of higher
plants, ensuring the transfer of genetic material from one
generation to the next. In addition, as almost all of the world's
agricultural and horticultural industries depend on the production
of flowers, fruits and seeds, the study of the reproductive biology
of cultivated plants is of fundamental importance to humankind.
Surprisingly, therefore, this topic has received relatively little
attention from environmental physiologists compared with studies on
the growth and development of vegetative structures. This book,
based on a meeting held by the Environmental Physiology Group of
the Society of Experimental Biology, sets out to correct this
deficiency. The topic is given a broad and comprehensive treatment,
with chapters covering the onset of flowering through to the
development and growth of fruits and seeds, and finally to
ecological and evolutionary aspects of fruiting. This volume will
therefore serve as a useful introduction to the various aspects of
flowering and fruiting and will also provide a thorough general
overview of the subject for students and researchers alike.
