About the Book


Plant Biotechnology: Practical Manual covers most of the important areas of present-day plant biotechnology, beginning from plant tissue
culture media preparation to transgenic plant production and related molecular biology protocols. It is meant for both students who are being
introduced to plant biotechnology and those wanting to do advance research in this field. It would also be helpful for teachers in formulating
their own practical protocols using different model plant systems. This book includes the principles, theoretical background and the basis for
each protocol supported by the authors' own research findings. This approach has been adopted to help the learners and researchers modify
their procedures to develop their own protocols and methods utilizing the proven protocols included in the book.
