The book comes during a time of rapid expansion in molecular
technology-based selection approaches that are destined to modify
or supplement conventional breeding methodology. The new
technologies will allow genetic and physiological factors
influencing sugar yield and quality to be assessed in great detail
and manipulated. These novel techniques will also reduce the
dependence of the sugar beet crop on chemical pesticides and
fertilizers by using unique and improved resistance mechanisms
against the various abiotic stresses and diseases and by producing
varieties that use soil resources more efficiently. A whole chapter
deals with the current information on the development of these new
techniques and their integration into sugar beet breeding.
