Genetics, Genomics and Breeding of Sugarcane (eBook, PDF)

Redaktion: Henry, Robert J.; Kole, Chittaranjan

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

The high level of genetic complexity in sugarcane creates challenges when applying either conventional or molecular breeding to the genetic improvement of sugarcane as a food or energy crop. Recent and emerging developments in genomic technologies offer the potential to greatly increase our understanding of the sugarcane plant. Describing those technologies that support the continued use and improvement of sugarcane as source of food and energy, this book provides scientists and researchers with the tools necessary to continue to improve sugarcane crop management, yield, and production for human use.
