Crop Ferality and Volunteerism
Product Description
At a time when much of humanity is already but one failed harvest removed from starvation, we cannot afford to ignore any potential danger to food security, especially when that danger poses a threat to rice, the staff of life for so much of the world.
Crop Ferality and Volunteerism brings together research pioneers from various disciplines including the crop, plant, and weed sciences to discuss crop ferality and volunteerism. The book provides thorough cove… More >>

Molecular Biology and Crop Improvement: A Case Study of Wheat, Oilseed Rape and Faba Beans
Product Description
This book identifies targets for plant transformation by molecular biology for two crops of major importance in European agriculture – wheat and oilseed rape – and the potentially important protein crop faba beans. Modern techniques have enabled researchers to identify, isolate and modify plant genes, and much effort is now being devoted to improving these techniques and to adapting them to crop plants. By these means, it should prove possible to make defined change… More >>
