Plants have evolved with a complex array of signaling molecules to
facilitate their growth and development and their interactions with
the environment. A vast number of different peptide molecules form
an important but until recently often overlooked component amongst
these signaling molecules. Plant peptide signals are involved in
regulating meristem growth and organogenesis, modulating plant
growth and homeostatic responses. They also have important roles as
signals of imminent danger or pathogen attack. This volume focuses
on the roles of various peptide signaling molecules in development,
defence and homeostasis. As it is likely that further plant peptide
signaling molecules remain to be discovered, the last section takes
a practical look at methods to identify new peptides and
characterise their functions.
