Cellular Communication in Plants, Softcover reprint of the original 1st ed. 1993

Reversible inhibition of tomato fruit ripening by antisense ACC synthase RNA, the role of salicylic acid as a plant signal molecule, and blue-light regulated gene expression are among the topics discussed in 19 papers from a symposium in Madison, WI, June 1992. About 40 abstracts of talks and poster
