Plant Gametogenesis: Methods and Protocols

by Christophe Lambing (Editor)

Overview

This volume provides prools and methods on techniques to study plant gametogenesis. Chapters are divided into four sections covering omics, cytological, molecular approaches, plant transformation, genome editing, bioinformatics, and data analysis. Written in the format of the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, each chapter includes an introduction to the topic, lists necessary materials and reagents, includes tips on troubleshooting and known pitfalls, and step-by-step, readily reproducible prools.

Authoritative and cutting-edge, Plant Gametogenesis: Methods and Prools aims to be a foundation for future studies and to be a source of inspiration for new investigations in the field.
