Programmed Cell Death in Plants

Editorial Reviews
Review
This book by J. Gray draws together the most recent information on [programmed cell death (PCD)] with regard to plant science and also refers to relevant PCD paradigms in non-plant organisms, enabling readers to obtain both a qualified overview as well as profound, detailed insight into this emerging topic. … This book … is a must for all those interested in 'life' sciences, in particular botany, forestry, agriculture, and, last not least, phytopathology.
- Journal of Plant Physiology 161, 2004

This book represents, for the first time, the compilation of studies on PCD in plants into a single volume, and provides readers with all the detailed information on the PCD processes that occur in the life cycle of plants. … The book is an excellent resource for anyone interested in PCD in plants.

This book is a timely and updated summary of the research that is ongoing in the subject of programmed cell death as it happens in plant systems…the well-presented introductory chapter by the editor, John, Gray…gives a broad overview of the evolutionary theory pertaining to the genesis of the cell death program during the speciation process…The presentation of the materials, as well as the illustrations in the various chapters, is clear and helpful. I highly recommend this book…

Book Description
For the first time in a single volume, researchers from seven countries review new knowledge and studies on programmed cell death (PCD) as it applies to plants, and draw comparisons with systems in animals and unicellular organisms. Chapters cover the major pathways of PCD in plants and animals, describe the cell death events in reproductive and vegetative tissues, outline examples of PCD in response to abiotic and biotic stress, and present future applications and methods. Programmed Cell Death in Plants serves as the source of ideas for the development of new research strategies and model systems regarding the phenomenon of PCD in plants.
