"As in previous editions, the book is organized into five basic parts. The initial three chapters are introductory chapters meant to support general aspects of propagation, including a historical perspective, basic plant biology concepts, and the environmental control of facilities associated with propagation and nursery practices. Part two provides a discussion of seed propagation from the initial aspects of seed development through seed production, domancy, and germination. Part three covers important aspects of vegetatibe propagation.

The fourth part of the textook is a discussion of propagation utilizing tissue culture techniques."--Préface.
