Molecular Cytogenetics and Crop Improvement

Bol

A comprehensive guide to molecular cytogenetics in crop breeding, blending classical and modern tools for gene mapping, genome analysis, and polyploidy. Authored by experts, it equips researchers, breeders, and students with strategies for developing resilient, high-yield crops. This volume presents the principles, techniques, and applications of molecular cytogenetics in modern crop improvement. Beginning with genome organization, it covers chromosome visualization, gene mapping, pre-breeding strategies, trisomics, cytogenomics, and polyploidy. Integrating classical cytogenetics with molecular biology, the book offers practical tools for developing resilient, high-yield crops. Authored by an expert team of scientists, Molecular Cytogenetics for Crop Improvement is an essential reference for plant breeders, geneticists, biotechnologists, and students aiming to meet global food security challenges through innovative crop science. Comprehensive coverage of molecular cytogenetic principles, techniques, and applications. Bridges classical cytogenetics with genomic and biotechnological tools. Practical methodologies for gene mapping, pre-breeding, and hybrid seed production. Expert contributions from leading researchers in crop science. Addresses urgent agricultural challenges including climate resilience and food security. Print edition not for sale in India.
