Advances in Plant BiotechnologyIn Vitro Production of Secondary Metabolites of Industrial Interest\nAuthor(s): Alma Anglica Del Villar-Martnez, Juan Arturo Ragazzo-Snchez, Pablo Emilio Vanegas-Espinoza, Octavio Paredes-Lpez\nFormat: Paperback\nPublisher: Taylor & Francis Ltd, United Kingdom\nImprint: CRC Press\nISBN-13: 9780367763381, 978-0367763381\nSynopsis\nThe goal of Advances in Plant Biotechnology is to integrate the most recent knowledge on tissue culture, secondary metabolites production under controlled conditions, scaling up to produce them at bioreactor level, and their industrial applications. The biosynthetic pathways and the factors that affect them and the accumulation of metabolites, including metabolomics in medicinal plants, are key components as well. Several extraction and encapsulation technological procedures are reviewed. The structure and function of metabolites from selected commercial crops are reported in detail. Finally, items of paramount importance, .
