Regeneration of Wheat, Rye and Triticale Plants Through Tissue Culture

  • Chapter
Plant Cell Culture in Crop Improvement

Part of the book series: Basic Life Sciences ((BLSC,volume 22))

Abstract

Recent developments in plant cell cultures have fostered the hope that this technique could be of invaluable help in crop improvement (1, 2). However, for effective utilization of this technique, methods have to be perfected for an efficient and rapid rate of plant regeneration from cultured cells.
