Our lives and well being intimately depend on the exploitation of
the plant genetic resources available to our breeding programs.
Therefore, more extensive exploration and effective exploitation of
plant genetic resources are essential prerequisites for the release
of improved cultivars. Accordingly, the remarkable progress in
genomics approaches and more recently in sequencing and
bioinformatics offers unprecedented opportunities for mining
germplasm collections, mapping and cloning loci of interest,
identifying novel alleles and deploying them for breeding purposes.
This book collects 48 highly interdisciplinary articles describing
how genomics improves our capacity to characterize and harness
natural and artificially induced variation in order to boost crop
productivity and provide consumers with high-quality food. This
book will be an invaluable reference for all those interested in
managing, mining and harnessing the genetic richness of plant
genetic resources.
