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 not only professional
scientists, but also thousands of future scientists/students as
well as amateur breeders around the world contribute heavily to the
field of ornamental breeding, an introductory section dealing with
the basics of molecular and classical genetics and the evolution of
floral diversity is included. This should enable the reader to
bridge the gap between traditional and molecular genetics.
Classical approaches to the creation/selection of genetic
variability, including mutation and tissue culture-aided breeding,
are presented. Processes affecting ornamental and agronomic traits
at the molecular level are delineated, along with an in-depth
analysis of developments in the protection of intellectual property
rights. The thoughts and strategies of molecular and classical
geneticists, which are not always complementary or even compatible,
are presented side by side in this book, and will serve to spark
the imaginations of breeders as well as students entering the
exciting world of state-of-the-art ornamentals.
