Keywords

Reviews

`This book can be recommended for advanced readers (scientists, postgraduate students), with a basic knowledge in somatic embryogenesis in woody species. ... This book is a valuable source of both general information on somatic embryogenesis of woody plants and more definite, practical information focusing on particular genera or species, very useful for preparing lectures and planning research work.'
Acta Physiologiae Plantarum, 22:4 (2000)
