Plant Cell Culture 
Essential Methods

The ability to culture cells is fundamental for mass propagation
and as a baseline for the genetic manipulation of plant nuclei and
organelles. The introduction to Plant Cell Culture: Essential
Methods provides a general background to plant cell
culture, including basic principles, technologies and laboratory
practices that underpin the more detailed techniques described in
subsequent chapters. Whilst each chapter provides a background to
the topic area and methodology, a crucial aspect is the provision
of detailed protocols with emphasis on trouble shooting, describing
common problems and detailed advice for their avoidance.
Plant Cell Culture: Essential Methods provides the
reader with a concise overview of these techniques, including
micropropagation, mutagenesis, cryopreservation, genetic and
plastid transformation and somatic cell technologies. This book
will be an essential addition to any plant science laboratory’s
bookshelf.

* Highlights the best and most up-to-date techniques for working
on plant cell culture

* Explains clearly and precisely how to carry out selected
techniques in addition to background information on the various
approaches

* Chapters are written by leading international authorities in
the field and cover both well-known and new, tried and tested,
methods for working in plant cell culture

An essential laboratory manual for students and early-career
researchers.
