Biotechnology of Orchids and Other Ornamentals

Advancement of plant tissue culture, or micropropagation, breeding, genetics and genomics have contributed to mass production of propagules, creating novel hybrids or cultivars, as well as modern tools for improving the molecular breeding efficiency of important crop plants, including ornamentals. This book covers these areas in relation to ornamental plants to fulfil the needs of students and researchers, in addition to commercial vendors. Ornamental biotechnology enables the mass producti...
