This work goes beyond recombinant DNA technology to bring together key information and references on new biotech tools for cultivar development, such as double-haploids, molecular markers, and genome-wide selection, among others. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIt is increasingly challenging for plant breeders and agricultural systems to supply enough food, feed, fiber and biofuel for the global population. As plant breeding evolves and becomes increasingly sophisticated, a staggering volume of genetic data is now generated. \u003ci\u003eBiotechnology and Plant Breeding\u003c\/i\u003e helps researchers and students become familiar with how the vast amounts of genetic data are generated, stored, analyzed and applied. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis practical resource integrates information about plant breeding into the context of modern science, and assists with training for plant breeders including those scientists who have a good understanding of molecular biology\/biotechnology and need to learn the art and practice of plant breeding. Plant biologists, breeding technicians, agronomists, seed technologists, students, and any researcher interested in biotechnologies applied to plant breeding will find this work an essential tool and reference for the field.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Aluízio Borém\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0124186726\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780124186729\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Academic Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/18\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 270\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.05lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.80d","brand":"Aluízio Borém","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48112832446719,"sku":"9780124186729","price":79.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a8694c23-ddcf-4a91-9fa3-c0f21ef9379e.jpg?v=1769611240","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/biotechnology-and-plant-breeding-aluzzio-borzsm-9780124186729","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
