Rice yields need to increase in order to keep pace with the growing population of Asia and to alleviate hunger and poverty. This work aims at understanding how the rice plant's photosynthetic pathway could be redesigned to overcome yield limits. It discusses the factors controlling yield from the agronomic to the molecular level.

Offers information on successive steps of molecular dialogue between plants and pathogens. This book also presents data that reflects intrinsic logic of plant-parasite interactions. It discusses the findings that include: host and non-host resistance, specific and non-specific elicitors, elicitors and suppressors, and plant and animal immunity.
