Plant Tissue Culture: An Introductory Text

Considerable work is being done to understand the physiology and genetics of in vitro embryogenesis and organogenesis using model systems, especially Arabidopsis and carrot, which is likely to enhance the efficiency ofin vitro regeneration protocols. All these aspects are covered extensively in the...
