Transgenetic Plants Current Innovations and Future Trends

Major advances in transgenic plant technologies in recent years have generated a plethora of potential applications in agriculture and other areas (food safety, vaccine delivery etc). In this book Internationally acclaimed authors review the current state-of-the-art technologies as well as many of the potential applications. The book contains chapters on diverse topics, ranging from tree somatic embryogenesis, and chloroplast transformation, to in planta transformation. One unique feature of the book is its focus on the future of transgenic plants. Site-specific recombination systems will certainly be part of that future. And exciting applications such as edible vaccines and functional genomics are will also be part of the future of transgenic plants.Stewart, C.
