This book provides an up-to-date overview of international research
work on sorghum. Its comprehensive coverage of our current
understanding of transgenic development in sorghum and the
strategies that are being applied in molecular breeding make this
book unique. Important areas such as genetic diversity, QTL
mapping, heterosis prediction, genomic and bioinformatics
resources, post-genome sequencing developments, molecular markers
development using bioinformatics tools, genetic transformation and
transgenic research are also addressed. The availability of the
genome sequence along with other recent developments in sequencing
and genotyping technologies has resulted in considerable advances
in the area of sorghum genomics. These in turn have led to the
generation of a large number of DNA-based markers and resulted in
the identification and fine mapping of QTL associated with grain
yield, its component traits, biotic and abiotic stress tolerance as
well as grain quality traits in sorghum. Though a large volume of
information has accumulated over the years, especially following
the sequencing of the sorghum genome, until now it was not
available in a single reference resource. This book fills that gap
by documenting advances in the genomics and transgenic research in
sorghum and presenting critical reviews and future prospects.
"Sorghum Molecular Breeding" is an essential guide for students,
researchers and managers who are involved in the area of molecular
breeding and transgenic research in sorghum and plant biologists in
general.
