Plant Breeding Reviews, Volume 36

Plant Breeding Reviews presents state-of-the-art reviews on plant genetics and the breeding of all types of crops by both traditional means and molecular methods.

Many of the crops widely grown today stem from a very narrow genetic base; understanding and preserving crop genetic resources is vital to the security of food systems worldwide.

The emphasis of the series is on methodology, a fundamental understanding of crop genetics, and applications to major crops.

It is a serial title that appears in the form of one or two volumes per year.
