A review on genetic transformation protocols of tomato (Solanum lycopersicon) / Nurul Afiqah Md Yusop
Tomato, scientifically named (Solanum lycopersicon L.) is one of the most essential vegetable crops and a model plant to study other plants. For further study in biotechnology especially for basic and practical studies for tomato improvement, successful transformation is important. However, the succ...
