Genetic and Genomic Resources for Grain Cereals ImprovementAuthor(s): Mohar Singh, Hari D. Upadhyaya\nFormat: Hardback\nPublisher: Elsevier Science Publishing Co Inc, United States\nImprint: Academic Press Inc\nISBN-13: 9780128020005, 978-0128020005\nSynopsis\nGenetic and Genomic Resources For Cereals Improvement is the first book to bring together the latest available genetic resources and genomics to facilitate the identification of specific germplasm, trait mapping, and allele mining that are needed to more effectively develop biotic and abiotic-stress-resistant grains. \n\nAs grain cereals, including rice, wheat, maize, barley, sorghum, and millets constitute the bulk of global diets, both of vegetarian and non-vegetarian, there is a greater need for further genetic improvement, breeding, and plant genetic resources to secure the future food supply. \n\nThis book is an invaluable resource for researchers, crop biologists, and students working with crop development and the changes.
