The Plant Protoplast: A Useful Tool for Plant Research and Student Instruction
Wagner, George J.; And Others
BioScience, 28, 2, 95-101, Feb 78
A plant protoplast is basically a plant cell that lacks a cell wall. This article outlines some of the ways in which protoplasts may be used to advance understanding of plant cell biology in research and student instruction. Topics include high efficiency experimental virus infection, organelle isolation, and osmotic effects. (Author/MA)
