Somatic Cell Genetics and Molecular Genetics of Trees

Somatic Cell Genetics and Molecular Genetics of Trees edited by M.R. Ahuja, Wout Boerjan, David B. Neale.

This proceedings is based on a joint meeting of the two IUFRO (International Union of Forestry Research Organizations) Working Parties, Somatic Cell Genetics (S2.04-07) and Molecular Genetics (S2.04-06) held in Gent, Belgium, 26-30 September, 1995. Although a joint meeting of the two Working Parties...
