Wild Crop Relatives: Genomic and Breeding Resources
Cereals
E-Book
Wild allies of crop plants are playing an important role as model species to resolve questions of genetics and breeding. In particular, they are invaluable sources for the genetic improvement of their cultivated counterparts and for breeding plant varieties.
In this 10-volume work, a variety of crops are covered, including completely wild, sporadically cultivated and those at the initial stage of domestications. Their origin, distribution, taxonomy, classical and molecular genetic studies and breeding efforts are described. Further, the academic, agricultural, medicinal, ecological, and industrial potential of both the cultivated and the wild allied taxa are discussed as well as steps for conservation of the wild species.
Wild Crop Relatives: Genomic and Breeding Resources comprises volumes dedicated to cereals, millets and forage grasses, oilseeds, legume crops and forages, vegetables, temperate fruits, tropical and subtropical fruits, industrial crops, plantation and ornamental crops, and forest trees.
