Applied Plant Cell Biology Cellular Tools and Approaches for Plant Biotechnology /

The aim of this volume is to merge classical concepts of plant cell biology with the recent findings of molecular studies and real-world applications in a form attractive not only to specialists in the realm of fundamental research, but also to breeders and plant producers. Four sections deal with t...
