Micropropagation of Orchids

This greatly expanded and updated edition of a classic reference
work comprises two volumes offering a compendium of methods for
multiplying orchids through micropropagation.

* A detailed collection of procedures and methods for multiplying
orchids, including organ, tissue, and cell culture techniques in
vitro

* Presents classic techniques that have been in the forefront of
orchid propagation since they were first developed in 1949

* Detailed procedures are appended with tables and complete
recipes for a large number of culture media

* Includes many illustrations, chemical formulas, historical
vignettes, and seldom seen illustrations of people, orchids,
apparatus and tools

"... an excellent resource like its predecessor,
...both informative and captivating, and served as a reminder
of why we go to such extremes in our quest to propagate these
plants." American Orchid Society, 2009

"...in the sense of its universal value and
importance, this Second Edition will undoubtedly be considered a
classic, if only because it will serve as a sole and invaluable
resource on the subject." Plant Science Bulletin,
2009

Autorentext
Dr Joseph Arditti majored in floriculture as an undergraduate and received his doctorate from the University of Southern California in 1965. After serving as a lecturer for one year at the University of Southern California, he accepted a faculty position at the University of California, Irvine in 1966 where he taught General Botany, Horticulture, and Plant Physiology while engaging in research on various aspects of orchid biology in the US, Indonesia, Singapore, and Malaysia. Dr Arditti retired in 2001 and is now Professor Emeritus. He continues to write and travel worldwide to lecture at scientific meetings and to orchid groups. He is acknowledged to be one of the world's leading experts on orchid biology and propagation.
