Agrobacterium Protocols, 2nd Ed. Vol. 1

Hardcover 2006 Author by WANG K.

Agrobacterium Protocols, 2nd Ed. Vol. 1 book is intended as a laboratory manual for researchers using Agrobacterium tumefaciens for plant transformation. It covers the basics of culturing and transforming Agrobacterium. You don’t expect a lab manual to be ideal reading, but I found this to be surprisingly readable. The book would be especially useful for someone just starting plant transformation work or changing to new plant species and it would also be useful reading for Masters students.

Agrobacterium Protocols, 2nd Ed. Vol. 1 chapters are organized in a highly detailed fashion, providing readers not only with step-by-step protocols but also with a comprehensive list of equipment and materials. With such a rich source of information, organized to be easy to read and very simple to implement, the book should be considered a must for every plant biology laboratory. It will also be an excellent tool for training students, doctorates, technicians, and other laboratory personnel in the art of plant genetic transformation.
