Quantitative Genetics, Genomics and Plant Breeding
Edited by M S Kang, Louisiana State University, USA
Pub Date: September 2002
Hardback
432 pages
Readership
Students and professionals involved in plant and crop breeding and genetics, also industry and government agencies
Key Features
• Offers an essential set of review papers for researchers wanting to know what is happening in their field
• Follows the growing realization that quantitative genetics is central to understanding the masses of molecular data that are being generated
• Authors include international authorities from around the world
Main Description
This book provides an overview of the rapidly developing integration and interdependence of quantitative genetics, genomics, bioinformatics and their application to plant breeding. Chapters have been developed from a symposium held in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, in March 2001, although additional contributions have also been commissioned especially for this volume. The main topics covered include: quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping, genomics, bioinformatics and marker-assisted selection; tissue culture and alien introgression for crop improvement; and advances in genotype by environment interaction/stability analysis.
Reviews
• "The book certainly meets with interest and needs of up to date information of plant breeders, may they be advanced students, practitioners, teachers or researchers." Journal of Phytopathology, March 2003
• "A welcome and timely publication and a stepping stone in a fast-expanding subject area that will play an increasingly important role for the future competitiveness of agricultural research." R Tuberosa, Annals of Botany, 93, 2004
