Biolistic DNA Delivery in Plants
Description
This volume details protocols for the use of the biolistic DNA delivery method in different plant species. Chapters guide readers through non-protocol chapters that cover relevant topics of interest, a broad overview of the field, exciting modifications of the system, and reliable plant transformation procedures in different plant species. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.
Authoritative and cutting-edge, Biolistic DNA Delivery: Methods and Protocols aims to provide a comprehensive collection of protocols to intended to be a practical guide for the novice as well as the advanced user in the field of plant genetic transformation.
