Overview
In recent years, the study of the plant cell cycle has become of major interest, not only to scientists working on cell division sensu strictu , but also to scientists dealing with plant hormones, development and environmental effects on growth. The book The Plant Cell Cycle is a very timely contribution to this exploding field.
Outstanding contributors reviewed, not only knowledge on the most important classes of cell cycle regulators, but also summarized the various processes in which cell cycle control plays a pivotal role.
The central role of the cell cycle makes this book an absolute must for plant molecular biologists.

Reprinted from , Volume 43, Numbers 5-6, 2000, this volume contains 18 contributions which present an overview of current knowledge on various aspects of cell cycle research in plants. Contributions include coverage of the constancy of cell division rate in the root meristem; developmental control of cell division patterns in the shoot apex; CDK-related protein kinases in plants; regulation of histone gene expression during the cell cycle; factors controlling cyclin B expression; genetic dissection of cytokinesis; endoreduplication in higher plants; geminiviruses and the plant cycle; and cell cycle regulation in the course of nodule organogenesis in .
