What are plant growth regulators? In the title, and throughout the
text, we have adopted this expression to describe a population of
endogenous molecules and synthetic compounds of similar structure
that are be lieved to play important roles in the regulation of
plant differentiation and development. For many years, plant
scientists have endeavoured to understand the nature and action of
plant growth regulators and, as a result, an awesome quantity of
written material now exists describing these chemicals and their
effects. In this book we have aimed to distil this wealth of
information into a more digestible form, and in particular we have
focused our attention on a critical appraisal of the literature.
The past few years have witnessed a change of emphasis in plant
growth regulator research, which has been fuelled by powerful new
techniques in molecular and cell biology. Today we can do more than
just apply a plant growth regulator and quantify its effects; we
have reached an exciting crossroads where plant scientists,
molecular bio logists and chemists can pool their expertise and
apply it to the out standing problems in this area. The combination
of these three disciplines within the book is clear evidence of
this. In keeping with a volume of this size, we have assumed that
the reader has a sound knowledge of plant physiology and
biochemistry. However, wherever possible, we have highlighted
useful reviews which provide background information, along with
recent publications that have contributed significantly to the
literature."
