Plants from Test Tubes

by Lydiane Kyte

Acclaimed since its first appearance as the most practical guide to plant tissue culture and widely adopted as a textbook, this standard work is now even better. This expanded edition introduces new developments in biotechnology, such as genetic engineering and cell culture. It provides detailed recipes for propagating plants from more than 30 families. It explains clearly how to set up a propagating laboratory, from a hobbyist's kitchen to an elaborate commercial enterprise.

Some of the information is old, but it gave me a good idea of what was involved in growing explants and I learned that it wasn't a good idea for me to try anytime soon.
