Book description
Plant Transformation Technologies
is a comprehensive, authoritative book focusing on cutting-edge plant
biotechnologies, offering in-depth, forward-looking information on
methods for controlled and accurate genetic engineering. In response to
ever-increasing pressure for precise and efficient integration of
transgenes in plants, many new technologies have been developed. With
complete coverage of these technologies, Plant Transformation Technologies
provides valuable insight on current and future plant transformation
technologies.
With twenty-five chapters written by international
experts on transformation technologies, the book includes new
information on Agrobacterium, targeting transgenes into plant
genomes, and new vectors and market systems. Including both review
chapters and protocols for transformation, Plant Transformation
Technologies is vitally important to graduate students,
postdoctoral students, and university and industry researchers.
