Third in a three volume series, this book presents the basic and applied aspects of gene sequencing and its implication in the fine-scale elucidation of plant genomes. It reviews advances in genomics over the past century and discusses genomic resources, concepts, tools, strategies, and achievements in comparative, evolutionary, and functional genomics as well as whole-genome sequencing. An ideal reference book for students, scholars, and scientists in academia, industry, and government, this volume presents critical reviews on already completed genome initiatives and offers previews of those initiatives currently progressing.
