Availability Information

We source books from suppliers in Australia and overseas. For books we don't currently have in stock, the time it takes to get them from our suppliers can vary widely - from a few days to a few months - so we check each book with each supplier to determine the expected time it will take to be supplied to us.

We then advise you accordingly. If the time taken to get any book is too long for you, you can let us know and we will cancel or adjust your order, and refund as required.

Oxylipins are an important class of signaling molecules in plants, which play an important role in plant defence and innate immunity. Oxylipins have critical roles in plant growth and plant responses to physical damage caused by herbivores, insects, and pathogenic microbes. Over the last decade, our understanding of oxylipin production, metabolism, and function, particularly jasmonates, has advanced considerably. Jasmonates have provided further mechanistic insights into enzyme function and signalling cascades. Other oxylipins, such as hydroxy fatty acids, have recently been shown to exhibit individual signaling features and crosstalk with other phytohormones.

There is scant literature on plant oxylipins and their relevance to our understanding and therefore, understanding oxylipin production, metabolism, and function is pivotal. As a result, researchers, students, professors, and other book readers will have a thorough understanding of plant oxylipin biosynthesis, structure, and function, assisting in the improvement of plant science.

Plant oxylipins: metabolism, physiological roles, and profiling techniques address the mechanism, metabolism, and roles of oxylipins in plant resistance to various biotic and abiotic stimuli in detail. This book covers fundamental ideas in oxylipin production, metabolism, structural biochemistry, and signaling pathways. It also discusses cutting-edge methodologies for oxylipin metabolic profiling, with an emphasis on computing applications. This book is an excellent resource for plant scientists, plant biochemists, biotechnologists, botanists, phytochemists, toxicologists, chemical ecologists, taxonomists, and other scholars in those subjects. The book is written by a global team of professionals.
