This volume presents a broad survey of contemporary research in basic plant science, genetic engineering, and the application of these fields to increased wood and crop production as raw materials for food, feed, and chemicals. The coverage includes methods and procedures in tissue culture, genetics and physiological studies of morphogenesis, genetic engineering of plants, germplasm maintenance by cryopreservation, plantmicrobial interactions, industrial and commercial applications. Studies on artificial seeds from somatic embryos and the bioconversion of lignin and cellulosic materials for food, feed, and chemicals will be of special interest to the reader. Researchers in all fields of plant science and plant molecular biology will find the wealth of basic and practical information contained in this volume especially useful for their work.
