Descripción

Plant Tissue Culture: Techniques and Experiments, Fourth Edition, builds on the classroom tested, audience proven manual that has guided users through successful plant culturing for almost 30 years. The book's experiments demonstrate major concepts and can be conducted with a variety of plant materials readily available throughout the year. This fully updated edition describes the principles of the newest technologies, including CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing and RNAi technology with plant cell and tissue cultures and their applications. Bridging the gap between theory and practice, this book contains detailed methodology supported by comprehensive illustrations, giving users a diverse learning experience for both university students and plant scientists.

Sunghun Park

Sunghun Park is a Professor in the Department of Horticulture and Natural Resources at Kansas State University, United States. He earned his PhD in Plant Physiology from Texas A&M University in 1995. His research focuses on gene function analysis, comparative genome-wide transcriptional profiling, and redox-mediated plant adaptation to abiotic stress and physiological disorders in crops. He has established Agrobacterium-mediated transformation systems in multiple crop species to investigate the genetic basis of plant phenotypes. With more than 30 years of experience in plant tissue culture and genetic transformation, Dr. Park combines fundamental studies in plant cell physiology with applied research aimed at improving crop productivity and nutritional quality through genomic and biotechnological approaches.
