Molecular Biology in Plant Pathogenesis and Disease Management, Volume 1 by P. Narayanasamy :: Molecular biology has emerged as one of the most important branches of biological sciences, helping them in achieving rapid and significant advancements. This branch has been able to provide the essential information on the basic cell behavior patterns such as growth, division, specialization, movement and interaction in terms of various molecules responsible for them. In the early stages of molecular biological research, simple organisms such as viruses and bacteria formed the preferred test materials. The realization that the function of whole organism can be fully understood, only when it is dissected and analyzed at molecular levels became widespread. Hence, the structure and function of nucleic acids (DNA and RNA) and proteins were extensively examined. It has been well demonstrated that individual molecules function generally as components of complex gene expression mechanisms in metabolic pathways or as structural elements invariably in concert with other molecules.
