This book is a must-read for scholars and academics starting research on plant receptor kinases. The first chapter details the mechanistic of plant receptor kinase structure and activation and details the roles of each domain and their properties and compares it with what is known of receptor animal kinase activation. The following chapters present an extensive review of small putative signaling peptides that could potentially bind receptor kinase and a subtraction method for EST sequencing to enrich in weakly expressed mRNAs. The last two chapters present a case study of two novels plant receptor kinases discovered using the subtraction method followed by a thorough functional analysis using biochemical, histochemical and transgenic approaches in the context of ovules and fruit development in plants.
