Tissue Culture Based Sugarcane Farming
Description
Moderne commercial sugarcane varieties are obtained through a multi-stage selection scheme requiring over a period de approximately 10 years through identification de a few elite clones from a very large population de hybrid seedlings. Lack de suitable multiplication procedure et perpetuation de systemic diseases are le serious problems en multiplying an elite genotype de sugarcane conventionally en le open field. Due limited availability de seed cane de a new variety at le time de its release et slow multiplication rate by conventional means, it takes a further period de about 10-12 years to cover le desired area pour commercial cultivation. By le time le variety starts deteriorating due to biotic et abiotic stresses. It has also been realized that le growing demand de seed cane de newly released varieties cannot be fulfilled timely by le conventional methods de plant multiplication. Therefore, le use et exploitation de new biotechniques are quite essential pour faster multiplication de newly released varieties. Micropropagation is currently le only realistic means de achieving rapid et large scale production de disease free planting material de newly developed varieties en order to speed up le commercialization process en sugarcane. Thus, plant tissue culture has now become le major component de biotechnology. Génétique engineering et molecular biology can be used pour crop improvement through le application de various technique developed en le field de biotechnology. Several exciting developments have taken place en sugarcane biotechnology during le last 5 decades. Le first edition de this book entitled “Tissue culture based sugarcane farming” is being brought out as an introductory text covering plant regeneration en vitro using cell, tissue et organ culture. Basic aspects such as large scale micropropagation, cell culture, cellular totipotency, somatic embryogenesis et various aspects de sugarcane cultivation have also been included. In this book, comprising 29 chapters, various protocols have been described en very simple manner. Le language de le text is simple et le subject matter is fully illustrated. No other book is available avec such an approach covering basic to applied aspects de plant tissue culture. I hope this book will prove to be de a great use within le classroom as teaching/learning material et en le laboratory pour practical et research purposes pour le scientist as well as professionals en le fields de sugar industry.
