Plant Cytogenetics

Plant Cytogenetics presents an up-to-date account of plant cytogenetic information that has been uncovered since the classic plant cytogenetics texts were published over two decades ago. Topics discussed include the handling of plant chromosomes, meiosis and its genetic control, a standard and universally accepted nomenclature for plant chromosomes, genome analysis and the chromosome pairing approach employed in biosystematic studies, the cytogenetic basis of somaclonal variation generated through cell and tissue cultures, and gene-chromosome-linkage group relationships. The book also presents a discussion of cytogenetic terminology. Plant Cytogenetics is an excellent text for agronomists, cytogeneticists, students, and researchers interested in plant cytogenetics.Singh, Ram J. is the author of 'Plant Cytogenetics' with ISBN 9780849386565 and ISBN 084938656X.
