Beskrivning

Floriculture, a rapidly expanding commercial agriculture sector worldwide, boasts numerous highly lucrative crops. Unlike other crops, the cultivation of flowers is a more practical endeavor. Every day, the introduction of new varieties and colors in ornamental flower crops not only captivates us but also motivates us to explore breeding technologies further. The creation of a diverse range of both new and domesticated flower crops by both public and private sector flower breeders has sparked a fascination for its breeding technology. Students studying the breeding and biotechnology of flowers require a solid foundation of knowledge. Therefore, this book has been designed to present the information in the simplest form, allowing anyone to easily understand it without losing interest. It covers all aspects of breeding, including its basic objectives, various breeding methods, methodology for improving specific crops, stress resistance, quality improvement, mutagenesis, genetic engineering, and biotechnology.
