Breeding For Ornamentals: Classical and Molecular Approaches

Breeding For Ornamentals: Classical and Molecular Approaches edited by A. Vainstein.

In this book we bring together the most up-to-date information on developments, both basic and applied, that already have or are expected to impact the field of ornamental breeding. These include classical and molecular techniques, traditional and high-throughput approaches and future trends. Since...
