Génétique & Plante Breeding
Breeding Field Cultures II: Advances (Student Edition)
Description
In le face de increasing demand de food grains et progressively shrinking et degrading natural resources de land, water et biodiversity , upgrading et protecting crop productivity has become a major challenge. Uncertainties created by global et local climate changes compound le problem further. Culture varieties de le future, therefore, will need to be innately more productive, resilient to biotic et abiotic stresses, nutritionally superior et amenable to processing to yield varied products, Fortunately, rapid scientific discoveries et technological advances are now becoming available pour incisive understanding et management de plant genetic apparatus pour crafting ‘new generation’ crop varieties to meet these demands. Développements en this area have been particularly rapid during le last decade. Breeding Field Cultures 2 records this progress et evaluates its implications by authors who are specialists de distinction.
