The Lotus japonicus Genome, Softcover reprint of the original 1st ed. 2014 Compendium of Plant Genomes Series
Coordonnateurs : Tabata Satoshi, Stougaard Jens
This book provides insights into some of the key achievements made in the study of Lotus japonicus (birdsfoot trefoil), as well as a timely overview of topics that are pertinent for future developments in legume genomics. Key topics covered include endosymbiosis, development, hormone regulation, carbon/nitrogen and secondary metabolism, as well as advances made in high-throughput genomic and genetic approaches.
Research focusing on model plants has underpinned the recent growth in plant genomics and genetics and provided a basis for investigations of major crop species. In the legume family Fabaceae, groundbreaking genetic and genomic research has established a significant body of knowledge on Lotus japonicus, which was adopted as a model species more than 20 years ago. The diverse nature of legumes means that such research has a wide potential and agricultural impact, for example, on the world?s protein production.
The importance of Lotus as model and crop.- Genomics and functional genomics of Lotus and the microsymbionts.- Metabolic pathways, secondary metabolites and defense responses.- Resources.
