Recent progress in biotechnology and genomics has expanded the
plant breeders' horizon providing a molecular platform on the
traditional plant breeding, which is now known as 'plant molecular
breeding'. Although diverse technologies for molecular breeding
have been developed and applied individually for plant genetic
improvement, common use in routine breeding programs seems to be
limited probably due to the complexity and incomplete understanding
of the technologies. This book is intended to provide a guide for
researchers or graduate students involved in plant molecular
breeding by describing principles and application of recently
developed technologies with actual case studies for practical use.
The nine topics covered in this book include the basics on genetic
analysis of agronomic traits, methods of detecting QTLs, the
application of molecular markers, genomics-assisted breeding
including epigenomic issues, and genome-wide association studies.
Identification methods of mutagenized plants, actual case studies
for the isolation and functional studies of genes, the basics of
gene transfer in major crops and the procedures for
commercialization of GM crops are also described. This book would
be a valuable reference for plant molecular breeders and a
cornerstone for the development of new technologies in plant
molecular breeding for the future.
