| tissue culture books: Plant Tissue Culture: An Introductory Text Sant Saran Bhojwani, Prem Kumar Dantu, 2013-04-06 Plant tissue culture (PTC) is basic to all plant biotechnologies and is an exciting area of basic and applied sciences with considerable scope for further research. PTC is also the best approach to demonstrate the totipotency of plant cells, and to exploit it for numerous practical applications. It offers technologies for crop improvement (Haploid and Triploid production, In Vitro Fertilization, Hybrid Embryo Rescue, Variant Selection), clonal propagation (Micropropagation), virus elimination (Shoot Tip Culture), germplasm conservation, production of industrial phytochemicals, and regeneration of plants from genetically manipulated cells by recombinant DNA technology (Genetic Engineering) or cell fusion (Somatic Hybridization and Cybridization). 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 of in vitro regeneration protocols. All these aspects are covered extensively in the present book. Since the first book on Plant Tissue Culture by Prof. P.R. White in 1943, several volumes describing different aspects of PTC have been published. Most of these are compilation of invited articles by different experts or proceedings of conferences. More recently, a number of books describing the Methods and Protocols for one or more techniques of PTC have been published which should serve as useful laboratory manuals. The impetus for writing this book was to make available a complete and up-to-date text covering all basic and applied aspects of PTC for the students and early-career researchers of plant sciences and plant / agricultural biotechnology. The book comprises of nineteen chapters profusely illustrated with self-explanatory illustrations. Most of the chapters include well-tested protocols and relevant media compositions that should be helpful in conducting laboratory experiments. For those interested in further details, Suggested Further Reading is given at the end of each chapter, and a Subject and Plant Index is provided at the end of the book. |

| tissue culture books: Plant Tissue Culture Sant Saran Bhojwani, Vibha Dhawan, Edward Charles Cocking, 1986 The tremendous accumulation of information on plant tissue culture is making it extremely difficult for anyone to keep fully abreast with the literature even in his own specialised area. Therefore, the authors have compiled a bibliography of plant tissue culture as a ready reference for those who are already working in this field, and have also made the task easier for those who have become interested in plant tissue culture. The idea of preparing the bibliography was conceived after completing the book Plant Tissue Culture: Theory and Practice (Elsevier, 1982). Recognition of the various potential industrial applications of plant biotechnology has considerably enhanced the importance of plant tissue culture (PTC), as the latter holds a pivotal position in the realisation of the final goal of crop improvement via cell manipulation and multiplication. It is also becoming increasingly popular in basic studies in plant sciences. Consequently there has been an explosion in the literature on PTC since 1970. A distinctive feature of the present compilation is that it covers all aspects of PTC of higher plants, including Gymnosperms. |
