InTAvE | 2014 | ISBN: 535112406 9789535112402 | 318 pages | PDF | 16 MB
This book comprehensively reviews current knowledge in germplasm exploration, genetic basis of complex traits, and molecular breeding strategies in rice.
The germplasm part highlights the application of wild rice in rice breeding.
In the genetics part, most of the complex traits related with yield, disease, quality have been covered.
In the improvement part, Chinese experiences in hybrid rice breeding have been summarized together with many molecular breeding practices scattering in different chapters.
