Accelerated plant breeding. Volume 1, Cereal crops / edited by Satbir Singh Gosal, Shabir Hussain Wani.

Plant improvement has shifted its focus from yield, quality and disease resistance to factors that will enhance commercial export, such as early maturity, shelf life and better processing quality. Conventional plant breeding methods aiming at the improvement of a self-pollinating crop, such as wheat...
