This title offers 62 chapters divided among three volumes covering the latest topics dealing with Doubled Haploid (DH) technology, as well as methods to produce DHs in different species through different in vivo and in vitro approaches. Volume 2 discusses the latest hot topics in DH technology; protocols to produce DHs in four apiaceae, caraway, fennel, dill, and carrot; DH production in different brassicaceae including Brassica napus, Brassica rapa, and Brassica carinata; and techniques to produce DHs by different androgenesis-based methods in several members of the Solanaceae family such as eggplant, pepper, tobacco, and potato. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, application details for both the expert and non-expert reader, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.Authoritative and comprehensive, Doubled Haploid Technology, Volume 2: Hot Topics, Apiaceae, Brassicaceae, Solanaceae is a valuable resource for scientists and researchers looking to learn more about this interesting and developing field.
