Molecular Markers & Plant Biotechnology
The book entitled `Molecular Markers and Plant Biotechnology' is an exclusive collection of molecular marker based techniques narrated in 40 chapters through 578 pages along with figures makes it essential for biotechnology people. To supplement the practical working the relevant equipments have been described. Laboratory safety rules placed in the beginning is a wise task. Appendices include basic calculations, basic principles in preparation of reagents, abbreviations and glossary show the carefulness while preparing this text. This is an unavoidable text for biotechnology laboratory and class.
