Micropropagation is a reliable technology applied commercially
worldwide for large-scale plant multiplication, germplasm
conservation, pathogen elimination, genetic manipulations and
supply of selected plants. In Protocols for Micropropagation of
Selected Economically-Important Horticultural Plants, well
recognised researchers in the field compile step-wise protocols for
rapid plant multiplication of economically-important horticultural
species. The book contains 35 chapters, divided into four major
sections. The first three sections (Section A, B and C) contain 29
micropropagation protocols of selected fruit and nut species,
indoor and outdoor ornamental plants, cut flowers, and vegetables.
In addition to the detailed protocols of in vitro shoot initiation,
proliferation, root induction and acclimatization, chapters also
include detailed information on medium preparation, explant
selection and preparation. The six chapters of Section D cover
specific reviews on pivotal topics, such as in vitro rejuvenation,
synthetic seed technology, thermotherapy and meristem culture in
banana, genetic transformation of pineapple, flower color
somaclonal variation in torenia, and cryotherapy of horticultural
crops. Moreover, as a part of the highly successful Methods in
Molecular Biology series, chapters include introductions to the
respective topic, lists of necessary materials, notes, and
illustrative photos. Comprehensive and well-written, Protocols for
Micropropagation of Selected Economically-Important Horticultural
Plants offers a useful resource for horticulturists, researchers,
commercial companies, plant propagators, biotechnologists and
students interested in micropropagation.
