Methods in Plant Cell Biology provides in two volumes a comprehensive collection of analytical methods essential for researchers and students in the plant sciences. Individual chapters, written by experts in the field, provide an introductory overview, followed by a step-by-step technical description of the methods.
Reviews / Votes
"The main strength of this book is that each contributor has taken great pains to provide a careful review of the field. Consequently, it will be of considerable value to novice and expert alike. The main body of each chapter provides considerable detail on the protocols available presented in a clear recipe style. Of equal importance is the provision of trouble-shooting details and clear illustrations. This is a high-quality book available at a price which is well within the reach of most researchers, including post-graduate students. Anyone interested in this fascinating subject should certainly consult this book."--PLANT GROWTH REGULATION
