Plastids are essential plant organelles, vital for life onearth. They are important not just as photosynthetic organelles(chloroplasts) but also as sites involved in many fundamentalintermediary metabolic pathways. Over the last decade, plastidresearch has seen tremendous advances and an exciting new pictureis emerging of how plastids develop and function inside plantcells. The recent and rapid progress in the field has been duelargely to reverse genetic approaches and forward genetic screeningprograms, which have resulted in the dissection of numerouschloroplast protein-function relationships.
This book provides an overview of the current state of the art.It is directed at researchers and professionals in plantphysiology, cell biology, genetics, molecular biology andbiochemistry.
