Regulation of Secondary Metabolite Formation: Workshop Proceedings

Twenty papers by internationally recognized experts summarize the present state of research in the hope of encouraging future scientific contact and co-operation. The contributors present the multivarious aspects of secondary metabolism (regulatory levels, functions for the producer, genetics, and enzymology of enzymes involved in biosynthesis) and current experimental approaches (exploitation of production by feeding procedures, mutational techniques, protoplast fusion, recombinant techniques, screening procedures, and cell-free and isolated enzyme studies).
