Book Description
Buckwheat Germplasm in the World offers an overview of this globally important crop, including its general characterization and genetic diversity—particularly in Russia, China, India and Eastern Europe. The book presents the latest research on molecular marker development, genetics and phenotype analysis of new wild buckwheat to examine the nutritional values of this pseudocereal crop. Due to its short growth span, ability to grow at high altitudes and the high quality of its protein content, buckwheat is considered an important crop for addressing global food needs. Ideal for researchers and advanced-level students seeking better understanding of the buckwheat germplasm. - Summarizes all the reported and distributed buckwheat species in the world - Offers researchers the ability to exchange resources with each other to breed new cultivars - Classifies buckwheat species based on perennial and annual from their growth span, and self-incompatible or self-compatible from their flower morphology and characterization - Facilitates hybridization of different species

Book Description
Molecular Breeding and Nutritional Aspects of Buckwheat describes the general characterization and genetic diversity of buckwheat (family Polygonaceae, genus Fagopyrum) around the globe (especially in Russia, China, India, and Eastern Europe), the arid and cool regions where it is most frequently consumed, and nutritional information on a variety of buckwheat uses, including tea, groats, flour, and noodles. With detailed information on buckwheat regeneration, genetic transformation, gene function analysis, and the metabolic engineering of bioactive compounds, the book guides readers through a variety of buckwheat varietal adaptations, providing foundation information on which additional research should be conducted. It is divided into four parts, including genetic resource and phylogenetic relationship, food nutrition, growth and cultivation, and molecular breeding, with each section providing insights into the most current developments. - Addresses all aspects of buckwheat research, including genetic resources, biological nutrition, genetic transformation, and molecular breeding - Presents global characterization on the genetic resource of Fagopyrum, giving researchers insights that will help them breed new cultivars - Explores the bioactivity of buckwheat - Includes detailed information on the environmental factors that affect the growth and production of buckwheat

Book Description
Common buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum Moench) has been a crop of secondary importance in many countries and yet it has persisted through centuries of civilization and enters into the agriculture of nearly every country where cereals are cultivated. This book describes the taxonomy, botany, history, uses, genetic resources and breeding of buckwheat
