Book Description
Over time, developments in the science of genetics have been explosive and of far reaching significance. Major gains for productivity increase and incorporation of many agronomic traits of crop varieties have, however, primarily accrued from conventional breeding effort. While in the pre-Mendelian era plant breeding was purely an art with its success depending solely on intuition and doggedness of the breeder, the present generation of plant breeders successfully utilise genetic principles on which plant breeding methods are based. The book “Plant Breeding” provides theoretical concepts and practical procedures for appreciation and practice of plant breeding. It is, in particular, directed to the use of students and practicing plant breeders in countries of the Southern hemisphere because it provides examples relevant to their own agriculture. The topics covered include: genetic principles; plant breeding concepts and methods for self- and cross-pollinated crops; crops propagated by vegetative means; vegetable crops, forage crops, fruit and forest trees; breeding for disease resistance; breeding for quality traits; mutation breeding; examples of some innovative approaches to crop improvement and plant genetic resources. Each topic has been written by acclaimed scientists specialising in the particular area and the treatment, therefore, bears a mark of authenticity.

Book Description
This book attempts to present a readable format on plant breeding principles and their application, based on the collective experience of the three authors, but with a heavy dependence on the scientific literature. Modem pedagogy recognizes that teaching can occur when students are motivated to learn. Subject matter must be communicated in an interesting, appealing, and understandable fashion. In preparing the text, every effort has been made to translate pertinent plant breeding references into a clear, logical, and comprehensible format for those studying the challenging and dynamic field of plant breeding.
