In vitro culture and its applications in horticulture

"This work, the result of the work of a team from Angers, France, constitutes a study that is complete, solid, accessible, and practical, which only the diversity of the authors (teachers, researchers, practitioners) and their competence could make possible." "This new edition takes into account the most recent experiments, particularly in the field of biotechnology and in vitro mycorrhization: to achieve this the editorial team included two professors of the Faculty of Sciences of Angers. Moreover, the applications of in vitro culture are brought up to date." "The work presents first of all the scientific aspects (basics, physiology) and technological aspects (set-up of a laboratory, achievement of cultures); this information is completed with mycorrhization and biotechnology. Then the authors develop the horticultural applications, emphasising genetic and hygiene aspects; finally, they tackle agronomic applications of in vitro culture, always pointing out the present constraints." "In Vitro Culture and Its Applications in Horticulture addresses readers as diverse as professionals in horticulture, educators, public and private researchers, and the endless ranks of horticultural workers."--Book jacket.P.
