Molecular Plant Breeding (cabi) (2025)
The book, primarily authored by , bridges the gap between theoretical molecular biology and practical field breeding. It details the tools and techniques used to identify, manipulate, and track specific genes that control important agricultural traits like yield, disease resistance, and climate resilience. Key areas covered include:
This text is highly regarded because it doesn’t just focus on the "how-to" of lab work; it emphasizes . It addresses the logistical and economic challenges of shifting from conventional breeding methods to modern, data-driven molecular strategies. It is widely used by researchers, post-graduate students, and professional breeders to stay current on high-throughput genotyping and bioinformatics . Molecular Plant Breeding (Cabi)
