| Summary |
This title offers 62 chapters divided among three volumes covering the latest topics dealing with Doubled Haploid (DH) technology, as well as methods to produce DHs in different species through different in vivo and in vitro approaches. Volume 3 looks at the emerging tools used in DH technology; protocols based on anther culture, in vitro gynogenesis and hybridization with irradiated pollen for DH production in cucubits such as cucumber, melon, watermelon, and summer squash; techniques to produce haploids and DHs in different woody species and genera such as citrus, coconut, walnut, and almond; and methods for DH production in borage, Saintpaulia ionantha, cow cockle, and marigold. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, application details for both the expert and non-expert reader, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Authoritative and comprehensive, Doubled Haploid Technology, Volume 3: Emerging Tools, Cucurbits, Trees, Other Species is a valuable resource for scientists and researchers looking to learn more about this interesting and developing field |
