For several thousand years, conventional breeding techniques have been used to genetically improve peaches. Now we have tissue culture and genetic engineering technologies at our disposal that will enable us not only to work at the whole plant level, but also at the organ, tissue, cell, protoplast, organelle, chromosome, and gene levels in our efforts ...
