Soybeans are one of the most widely-grown crops in the world. As
the world's main source of vegetable protein, they have a wide
range of food and non-food uses. Current yields need to increase
significantly to meet growing demand but in a way that reduces
input use, does not damage the environment and is resilient to
climate change. This collection reviews the wealth of research
addressing this challenge. Volume 1 focuses on breeding and
cultivation techniques. Part 1 starts by reviewing our
understanding of soybean physiology and genetic diversity. It then
discusses advances in conventional and marker-assisted breeding, as
well as transgenic techniques, and their use to produce more
stress-resistant varieties. Part 2 reviews key advances in
cultivation techniques to make the most of these new varieties.
With its distinguished editor and international team of authors,
this will be a standard reference for soybean scientists, growers,
government and non-government agencies supporting soybean
cultivation. It is accompanied by a companion volume that looks at
diseases and pests as well as the crop's range of uses.
