• Historical Developments of Cell and Tissue Culture Techniques.- Callus Cultures.- Cell Suspension Cultures.- Protoplast Cultures.- Haploid Techniques.- Plant Propagation-Meristem Cultures,Somatic Embryogenesis.- Some Endogenous and Exogenous Factors in Cell Culture Systems.- Primary Metabolism.- Secondary Metabolism.- Phytohormones and Growth Regulators.- Cell Division, Cell Growth, Cell Differentiation.- Genetic Problems and Gene Technology.- Summary of Some Physiological Aspects in the Development of Plant Cell and Tissue Culture.- Summary: Applications of Plant Cell and Tissue Culture Systems.

From the reviews: "The approach of including several examples and description of well-illustrated protocols from available primary literature and the author's own laboratory experiences and helpful guidelines make this volume a gem for conventional tissue culture practices. ... To the best of our experiences, this volume is suitable for both undergraduate and postgraduate level courses in life sciences, biotechnology, plant tissue culture, plant biotechnology ... or plant science courses. We also recommend this volume for M.Tech., M.Phil., and PhD level courses in the above-mentioned areas and related disciplines." (S. K. Basu and A. Goyal, Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology, November, 2009)
