laboratories of many plant geneticists, physiologists, developmental biologists, and

molecular tools that account for much more efficient research. The significance that# e) f! y: x4 o3 P0 B% R
Arabidopsis would attain in biological research may have been difficult to foresee in4 ?( V, `! k! _+ C. D2 V; Z
the 1980s, when its use in the laboratory started. In the meantime, it has become the& N( b# [9 G0 M* P4 t X

plant biology without the use of Arabidopsis.

knowledge. These advances will eventually lead to an understanding of how this complex,) s& E( d- r' A. S+ C9 F

While conceiving this second edition of Arabidopsis Protocols, our aim remained as it- b! b- p/ T3 u/ N6 E5 g
was in the first: the book should provide both experienced researchers and beginners in _9 F7 u7 F9 a
the field of plant biology with a comprehensive set of up-to-date protocols covering the
/ U" x7 Z# f4 s! o- cmany methods developed for work with this species. Readers should have little problem

are new and describe technologies that have only very recently been developed in+ l3 o. o; @2 ?3 @/ ? d6 J" I
Arabidopsis. We hope that Arabidopsis Protocols, Second Edition will continue as a, ~' e0 i% {9 s
standard reference for laboratories working with Arabidopsis and other plant species.0 Q0 N% ]( L: A5 b. S

因为有些大,我把它分成了2部分。下载之后PDF软件合并一下就可以成整本了哈。 |
