Book Description
Plant Breeding Reviews is an ongoing series presenting state-of-the art review articles on research in plant genetics, especially the breeding of commercially important crops. Articles perform the valuable function of collecting, comparing, and contrasting the primary journal literature in order to form an overview of the topic. This detailed analysis bridges the gap between the specialized researcher and the broader community of plant scientists.
Plant Breeding Reviews, Volume 16
Author: Jules JanickPublisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 9780471254461
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 358
Book Description
Plant Breeding Reviews presents state-of-the-art reviews on plant genetics and the breeding of all types of crops by both traditional means and molecular methods. At a time when methods of molecular biology are leading to genetically engineered crops, and when the supply of wild varieties of many crops are threatened, this series provides the most current and important information available on the subject.

Book Description
This major work presents a biosystematic analysis of wild potatoes of Peru. It represents more than three decades of the work by the author in the International Potato Center. In addition to a description of the taxa, the book includes drawings of the various species, floral dissections, habitat photos and distribution maps. The distinguished artist and plant pathologist, Dr. Franz Frey, made the watercolor paintings.
Crop Production Research
Author: The Wild Solanums Genomes
Author: Domenico CarputoPublisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030303438
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 250
Book Description
This book gathers the latest information on the organization of genomes in wild Solanum species and emphasizes how this information is yielding direct outcomes in the fields of molecular breeding, as well as a better understanding of both the patterns and processes of evolution. Cultivated Solanums, such as potato, tomato, and pepper, possess a high number of wild relatives that are of great importance for practical breeding and evolutionary studies. Their germplasm is often characterized by allelic diversity, as well as genes that are lacking in the cultivated species. Wild Solanums have not been fully exploited by breeders. This is mainly due to the lack of information regarding their genetics and genomics. However, the genome of important cultivated Solanaceae such as potato, tomato, eggplant, and pepper has already been sequenced. On the heels of these recent developments, wild Solanum genomes are now becoming available, opening an exciting new era for both basic research and varietal development in the Solanaceae.
