Proceedings of the NATO Advanced Study Institute on the Molecular Basis of Plant Aging held in Ribadesella, Asturias, Spain from June 25-July 8, 1989. The problems and practices of woody plant tissue culture are considered, particularly as these are affected by the maturation process. Contributors examine factors affecting culture establishment and multiplication, problems of vitrification, polyphenol production, generation of somaclonal variation, and the use of minimal culture media. The second major focus is on the genetic biochemical and molecular basis of phase change and aging in woody species. In this section topics discussed include nitrogen metabolism, oxidative stress, free radical generation, and the role of phytohormones. Annotation c.
