Plant Breeding

Analysis and Exploitation of Variation

By: Darbeshwar Roy

This book describes the experimental and analytical methodologies available for the genetical analysis of qualitative, quasi-quantitative and quantitative traits and its applications in practical plant breeding and evolution. Models for studying quantitative genetic variation following Birmingham and Edinburgh notations are described. The statistics used is simple and systematic so that the reader will have no difficulty in solving problems in plant genetics. It describes the genetic principles and provides breeding procedures underlying various breeding methods for manipulating qualitative, quasi-quantitative and quantitative traits. It takes into account the latest developments in breeding methodologies including dihaiploidy and apomixis, applications of tissue culture for plant breeding use, genetic engineering for production of transgenics and hybrids, and molecular marker technologies in the analysis of quantitative trait loci, marker assisted selection, evolution and conservation of genetic resources. This book will be useful for undergraduates, postgraduates, teachers and researchers working in the field of genetics and plant breeding.

Breeding of Ornamental Crops

By: Darbeshwar Roy

Discusses the evolution and genetic resources of flowers and ornamental crops. Biosynthetic pathways of various floral pigments, scent and aroma and its genetics have been described which will help in the manipulation of these traits. Considering that the interspecific and intergeneric hybridisation has played an important role in the evolution of these methods for overcoming pre- and post-zygotic barriers in hybridisation have been described, which will guide breeders to design hybridization program accordingly. This book will be invaluable to undergraduate and postgraduate students, teachers and researchers in the field of ornamental crops breeding.
