Zusatztext "This magnum opus is the outcome of the labour of love of the dedicated atuhors. It should be in the libraries of scientists! research insstitutes and organisations interested in oil palm improvement."--Gurdev S Khush! University of California! published in The Planter! Vol. 94! No. 1105! April 2018 Informationen zum Autor Aik Chin Soh, Sean Mayes, Jeremy A. Roberts Zusammenfassung This book provides an up-to-date perspective on oil palm breeding and genetics from the people actively involved in research. The breeding of many crops has been, or will be, revolutionized by the new high throughput approaches. How they are applied and how much of an impact they make are determined by the same factors that make each crop, and the agriculture and uses of each crop, unique.
