Although there are many excellent tissue culture books and manuals  available, these are generally strongly biased towards herbacious  crops. Consequently, they often do not pay sufficient attention to  the problems that specifically apply to \u003cem\u003ein vitro\u003c\/em\u003e culture of  tree species. Culture of the latter often poses problems which are  either absent or of lesser significance when culturing herbacious  species. \u003cbr\u003e  When trees in the field are used as explant source, the problems can  be especially severe. For example, the physiological condition of the  explants is difficult to control because of variation in weather and  biotic factors. Furthermore, it is often difficult to obtain explants  free of contaminants from field grown trees. Lack of genetic  uniformity and maturation are additional problems one often has to  deal with when culturing tree cells or tissues. These problems are  emphasized in this text. \u003cem\u003eIn vitro\u003c\/em\u003e culture of trees is not  viewed in isolation. It is considered in conjunction with breeding,  traditional cloning and other common tree improvement techniques.
