Presents and discusses new directions in plant systems research to bridge knowledge from the gene to the plant, crop and agro-ecosystemlevels and to assist in solving problems in production ecology and resource use by identifying and applying new research methods. Contents(partly): Genetic and molecular analysis of growth responses toenvironmental factors using Arabidopsis thaliana natural Variation/From QTLs to genes controlling root traits in maize/ Multi-traitmulti-environment QTL modelling for drought stress adaptation in maize/Accounting for variability in the detection and use of markers forsimple and complex traits/ etc.
