Van Le; Thorpe, Trevor A.\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eScientists within the field of plant biotechnology are in a  constant search for techniques that can, in the simplest manner  possible, answer the genetic and biochemical questions that underlie  developmental processes. \u003cem\u003eThin Cell Layer Culture System\u003c\/em\u003e not only  takes an in-depth look at a technique that has had so much success in  attempting, through various practical models and systems, to answer  these issues, but also represents a celebration of almost 30 years of  research that has covered a massive scope of plant species and areas  of study. The initial studies conducted on tobacco thin cell layers  (TCLs) - proving that organogenesis can be strictly controlled  \u003cem\u003ein\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cem\u003evitro\u003c\/em\u003e - allowed plant research to benefit from this  finding, expanding this knowledge in a practical and applied manner  into the biotechnological fields of tissue culture and  micropropagation, cell and organ genetics and biochemistry. \u003cbr\u003e  The chapters in this book tell the enigmatic tale of TCLs. An  historical perspective opens the scene for an inquiry into the  possible cellular, biochemical and genetic processes that allow for  the controlled development of a TCL into any organ type. The success  of the system is further demonstrated in both monocotyledonous and  dicotyledonous species, covering successful organogenesis and \u003cem\u003ein  vitro\u003c\/em\u003e flowering in species within ornamental, leguminous and wood  crops, cereals and grasses. Methodologies are outlined in detail, as  is the rationale behind the TCL-organogenesis-developmental sequel.  The TCL method, shown to be superior to many conventional  micropropagation systems, has also shown to be vital in the recovery  of transgenic plants. \u003cbr\u003e  This book is an essential part of every plant, cell and developmental  biologist, geneticist and tissue culturalist's shelf as it addresses  the primary issue of any plant: the cell, the tissue, and their  subsequent development into a highly organized system.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2003-03-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781402012075\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-017-3522-3\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 517\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46265556992140,"sku":"9781402012075","price":197.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781402012075.jpg?v=1770783533","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9781402012075","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
