APCOAB Publication On Potato Seed Micropropagation
March 30, 2007| |
The Asia Pacific Consortium on Agricultural Biotechnology (APCoAB) has recently released a new publication titled "Micropropagation for Production of Quality Potato Seed in Asia-Pacific". The publication provides detailed information on production of virus-free potato plants, their rapid multiplication, and microtuber and minituber production. Integration of micropropagation with conventional potato seed production is also discussed. Success stories of quality potato seed production using micropropagation in some Asia-Pacific countries are also discussed.
The publication is available at: http://www.apcoab.org/documents/potato_pub.pdf,
