One reason for this is that the biology of  material growing  \u003cem\u003ein vitro\u003c\/em\u003e has been insufficiently understood  for modifications to standard methods to be made based on sound  physiological principles. However, during the past decade, tissue  culture companies and others have invested considerable effort to  reduce the empirical nature of the production process. The idea of the  conference `Physiology, Growth and Development of Plants and Cells in  Culture' (Lancaster, 1992) was to introduce specialists in different  areas of plant physiology to micropropagators, with the express aims  of disseminating as wide a range of information to as large a number  of participants as possible, and beginning new discussions on the  constraints and potentials affecting the development of  \u003cem\u003ein  vitro\u003c\/em\u003e plant production methods. \u003cbr\u003e  This book is based on presentations from the conference and has been  divided into two main sections, dealing with either aspects of the  \u003cem\u003ein\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cem\u003evitro\u003c\/em\u003e environment -- light, nutrients, water, gas -- or  with applied aspects of the culture process -- morphogenesis,  acclimation, rejuvenation, contamination. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2012-11-22\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9789401043397\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-011-0790-7\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 240cm x160cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 427\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44398794506380,"sku":"9789401043397","price":49.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9789401043397.jpg?v=1776523268","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9789401043397","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
