Vitro regeneration research paper

Trying to get my head around vitro-regeneration.

Here is a PDF of a full length research paper about written by Blackson L. K. Thokozani from Africa Biotechnical laboratory.

The paper is quite hard to get your head around, especially to me who has only heard of the subject for a few weeks and is yet to fully understand it. This study involved two separate 
experiments. The first evaluated the effect of pre-sowing treatments and growing medium on ex vitro
seed germination and early seedling development. The second experiment involved  in vitro
germination, shoot initiation and rooting of shoots; which basically covers what Matthew's dads company covers. The papers cover these two experiment, explains how they are done as well as breaking down the results for you.

Content like this is very useful because as part of the brief we are going to publish papers such as this within nicely laid out publications which follows the overall aesthetic of the company which we choose. Therefore it will give us some interesting content to experiment with for initial design concepts for these publications whilst we wait for the content from Matthews dad.
