The genetic variability that developed in plants during their
evolution forms the basis of their domestication and breeding into
the crops grown today for food, fuel and other industrial uses.
This third edition of Plant Evolution and the Origin of Crop
Species brings the subject up-to-date, with more emphasis on crop
origins. Beginning with a description of the processes of evolution
in native and cultivated plants, the book reviews the origins of
crop domestication and their subsequent development over time. All
major crop species are discussed, including cereals, protein
plants, starch crops, fruits and vegetables, from their origins to
conservation of their genetic resources for future development.
