This volume will be the only existing single-authored book offering
a science-based breeder's manual directed at breeding for
water-limited environments. Plant breeding is characterized by the
need to integrate information from diverse disciplines towards the
development and delivery of a product defines as a new cultivar.
Conventional breeding draws information from disciplines such as
genetics, plant physiology, plant pathology, entomology, food
technology and statistics. Plant breeding for water-limited
environments and the development of drought resistant crop
cultivars is considered as one of the more difficult areas in plant
breeding while at the same time it is becoming a very pressing
issue. This volume is unique and timely in that it develops
realistic solutions and protocols towards the breeding of drought
resistant cultivars by integrating knowledge from environmental
science, plant physiology, genetics and molecular biology.
