Description

The first volume of this Plant Tissue Culture (PTC) bibliography, published in 1986, covered the literature from 1900 to 1985. This supplement to the PTC bibliography covers the papers and books published in the period 1986-1989, with some references of 1985 and before which were not available when the original volume was compiled. The detailed Introduction to this volume includes a table with a graphic presentation of the trend of research in the field of PTC during this 5-year period. It is interesting to note that during the past five years alone about 6000 papers have been published, which is almost half of the literature published from 1900 to 1985. Another table lists the periodicals and their respective volumes surveyed for this book. Appended is an Index to Plant Names, which facilitates the search of the literature either subject-wise or species/crop-wise.
