Paperback. Condition: New. This book, Plant Breeding, has it bases in an earlier text entitled An Introduction to Plant Breeding by Jack Brown and Peter Caligari, first published in 2008. The challenges facing today's plant breeders have never been more overwhelming, yet the prospects to contribute significantly to global food security and farmers' quality of life have never been more exciting and fulfilling.  Despite this there has been a worrying decline in public funding for plant breeding-related research and  support for international centers of germplasm development and crop improvement.   In part, this has resulted in a serious reduction in the number of young people interested in devoting their professional careers to plant breeding as well as the number of universities offering plant breeding courses or conducting relevant research in plant breeding. The authors' aim in writing this book is to provide an integrated and updated view of the current scientific progress related to diverse plant breeding disciplines, within the context of applied breeding programs.  This excellent new book will encourage a new generation of students to pursue careers related to plant breeding and will assist a wider audience of agricultural students, agronomists, policy makers and those with an interest in agriculture in gaining insight about the issues affecting plant breeding and its key role in improving the quality of life of people and in securing sufficient food, at the quality required and at an affordable price. With comprehensive coverage including questions designed for students, and an accompanying website containing additional material to help in the study of the subject, Plant Breeding is an ideal text for all those studying plant and crop sciences, and a convenient reference source for professionals working in the area. All libraries within universities and research establishments where biological and agricultural sciences are studied and taught should have multiple copies of this book.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book provides a fresh, updated perspective of the current status and perspectives in genetic improvement of a diverse array of tropical crops. The first part covers aspects which are relevant across crops, namely how to maximize the use of genetic information through modern bioinformatic approaches and how to use statistics as a tool to sustain increased genetic gains and breeding efficiency. The second part of the book provides an updated view of some seed-propagated crops, such as rice, maize and oil palm, as well as crops propagated through vegetative means such as sweet potato, cassava, banana and sugarcane. Each chapter addresses the main breeding objectives, markets served, current breeding approaches, biotechnology, genetic progress observed, and in addition a glimpse into the future for each of these selected and important tropical crops.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Selection procedures used in plant breeding have gradually developed over a very long time span, in fact since settled agriculture was rst undertaken. Nowadays these procedures range from very simple mass selection methods, sometimes applied in an ine ective way, to indirect trait selection based on molecular markers. The procedures di er in costs as well as in genetic - ciency.Incontrasttothegenetice ciency,costsdependonthelocalconditions encountered by the breeder. The genetic progress per unit of money invested varies consequently from site to site. This book considers consequently only the genetic e ciency, i.e. the rate of progress to be expected when applying a certain selection procedure. Ifabreederhasacertainbreedinggoalinmind,aselectionprocedureshould be chosen. A wise choice requires a wellfounded opinion about the response to be expected from any procedure that might be applied. Such an opinion should preferably be based on the most appropriate model when considering the crop and the trait (or traits) to be improved. Sometimes little knowledge is available about the genetic control of expression of the trait(s). This applies particularly in the case of quantitative variation in the traits. It is, therefore, important to be familiar with methods for the elucidation of the inheritance of the traits of interest. This means, in fact, that the breeder should be able to develop population genetic and quantitative genetic models that describe the observed mode of inheritance as satisfactorily as possible.…

Brossura. Condition: nuovo. Arbor Sapientiae Editore, 2025. - Nel quadro della configurazione etnico-culturale della penisola italica nell'ultima fase del Bronzo finale, le testimonianze archeologiche relative all'Italia centrale tirrenica rivelano la presenza di un elemento nuovo e sostanzialmente diverso dal panorama allora dominante della "cultura sub-appenninica". Questo orizzonte si manifesta a partire almeno dal X secolo a.C. nell'area a meridione del Tevere tra la zona costiera ed i Colli Albani, con riflessi nel Lazio meridionale (Anzio, Satricum), nell'Etruria costiera (Monti della Tolfa, Tarquinia, Vetulonia) e nella Sabina (Camporeatino, Palombara Sabina); in definitiva ci si trova di fronte all'apparire di una manifestazione originale, per di più ristretta in uno spazio geografico chiaramente precisabile rispetto alle più vaste e vaghe aree di diffusione delle culture precedenti.…
