There is an increasing awareness amongst the plant cell cycle community that cell cycle genes interface with growth and development. Increasingly, snippets of information have shown that growth and development can be affected by over-expression of cell cycle genes, although how this interface operates and how cell cycle genes talk to developmental genes remains shrouded in mystery. In this one consolidated volume, a group of internationally renowned plant cell cyclists have turned their thoughts to the problem. This is both welcome and timely. Not surprisingly, several authors tackle the cellular and organismic theories of development in relation to cell number and cell size.
