This book presents a comprehensive overview of the molecular genetic mechanisms governing plant vegetative and reproductive development, focusing on findings in the past 10-15 years. Plants development, including organogenesis, occurs throughout the life with meristems continuing to generate cells for new organs. Moreover, flowering plants have distinct reproductive structures and processes different from other plants, including flowers, double fertilization, and fruits, leading to the great success of angiosperms. In the past decades, rapid progresses have been made with new insights into regulatory mechanisms of plant development using model plants including Arabidopsis and rice. This book brings together contributions from leading experts and synthesizes major advances in root and shoot development, floral induction, gametophyte formation, fertilization, and seed development. It presents cutting-edge discoveries on gene regulatory networks, cellular dynamics, epigenetic control, and environmental adaptation, highlighting the integration of these pathways to shape plant form and productivity.
This book is an authoritative reference for graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, and scientists in plant biology, crop genetics, and biotechnology. The book also serves as a valuable platform for researchers seeking to understand and engineer key traits in crop species, with its synthesis of developmental mechanisms with resilience under environmental stress, along with knowledge on reproductive regulation and yield-related traits, as a reference for those engaged in genetic improvement and sustainable agriculture.
Dr. Fang Chang is Professor at the School of Life Sciences, Fudan University. She is a recipient of the National Excellent Youth Science Fund and the Wei Zhiming Young Innovator Award from the Chinese Society of Plant Physiology. She serves on multiple national and regional academic committees, including the Women Scientists Committee and the Plant Structure and Reproduction Committee of the Chinese Society of Plant Physiology and Molecular Biology, the Women Scientists Committee of the Chinese Society for Cell Biology, and the councils of the Shanghai Society of Plant Physiology and Molecular Biology and the Shanghai Society of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. Her research explores plant reproductive development and environmental adaptation, with a focus on reproductive stem cell fate determination, mechanisms sustaining growth and fertility under stress, and sex determination and directed evolution. Her work has been published in Nature Communications, The Plant Cell, Molecular Plant, and other leading journals.
Dr. Yingxiang Wang is Professor and Dean of the College of Life Sciences at South China Agricultural University, and a recipient of the National Science Fund for Distinguished Young Scholars. He also serves as a principal investigator at the Guangdong Laboratory for Lingnan Modern Agriculture. His research specializes in using model plant Arabidopsis and the crop soybean to investigate the molecular mechanisms of meiotic recombination and its application in breeding, as well as the genetic basis of soybean adaptation to tropical and subtropical climates for new germplasm development. He has published over 80 SCI papers and reviews in prestigious journals including Nature Plants, Nature Communications, The Plant Cell, and PNAS.
Dr. Hong Ma is Professor of Biology and the Huck Endowed Chair in Plant Reproductive Development and Evolution at the Pennsylvania State University. He is a Fellow of AAAS and has served as the President-Elect/President/Immediate Past President of American Society of Plant Biologists from 2023-2026. He has studied plant reproductive development under favorable and stressful conditions using Arabidopsis and rice and a combination of molecular and genomic/transcriptomic approaches, with discoveries of novel genes essential for meiosis and anther development. He has also conducted molecular phylogenetic and evolutionary analyses of large angiosperm families, including Asteraceae, Brassicaceae, Cucurbitaceae, Fabaceae, Orchidaceae, Poaceae, Rosaceae, and Solanaceae, and major angiosperm lineages. He and his collaborators have published >340 scientific articles, including in those in Cell, Nature, Science, Nature Genetics, Molecular Plant, Nature Plant, Nature Communication, The Plant Cell, PNAS, Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Plant Communication, and Molecular Biology and Evolution.

§ 1 Basic provisions
(1) The following terms and conditions of business apply for all contracts concluded with us as the supplier (preigu GmbH & Co. KG) via the websites AbeBooks and/or ZVAB. Unless otherwise agreed, the inclusion of your own terms and conditions is explicitly rejected.
(2) A ?consumer' in the sense of the following regulations is every natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwh...
Instructions for revocation
Right of withdrawal for the sale of goods
Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
Criteria for exclusion or expiry
The revocation right is not available for contracts
for delivery of products, which are not prefabricated and for whose manufacturing an individual selection or stipulation by the consumer is important or which are clearly tailored to the personal requirements of the consumer;
for delivery of products, which can spoil quickly or whose use-by date would be exceeded quickly;
for delivery of alcoholic drinks, whose price was agreed at the time of concluding the contract, which however can be delivered 30 days after the conclusion of the contract at the earliest and whose current value depends on the fluctuations in the market, on which the entrepreneur has no influence;
for delivery of newspapers, periodicals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts. The revocation right expires prematurely in case of contracts
for delivery of sealed products, which are not suitable for return for reasons of health protection or hygiene if their seal has been removed after the delivery;
for delivery of products if they have been mixed inseparably with other goods after the delivery, owing to their condition;
for delivery of sound or video recording or computer software in a sealed package if the seal has been removed after the delivery.
