This greatly expanded and updated edition of a classic reference work provides the user with comprehensive details of the overwhelming majority and perhaps even all procedures for propagating orchids through the culture of tissues in vitro (micropropagation).Presented in two volumes, the book opens with a detailed and illustrated historical section which covers the discoveries, developments and people which made micropropagation possible. Section 2 discusses in detail the principles and components of culture media which are used in micropropagation. The main component of the two volumes is Chapter 3. This chapter contains detailed procedures for the culture of over 100 orchid genera. Classical, established and the very latest techniques of clonal propagation through the culture in vitro of organs, tissues, and cells are presented. Every one of the listed methods includes tables of complete recipes for a wide range of culture media. This new edition will continue to be the key reference for all those interested in and involved in orchid micropropagation, growing, and production.
