Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Breeding Crop Plants' is a comprehensive study on the scientific principles and practical techniques used to improve agricultural productivity through genetic selection and hybridization. Written by Herbert Kendall Hayes and Ralph John Garber, this work explores the fundamental laws of heredity as applied to the development of superior plant varieties.The text covers a wide array of topics essential to the field of agronomy, including the mode of reproduction in various crops, the role of biometry in plant breeding, and specific methodologies for improving small grains, corn, and other essential field crops. By examining the relationship between genetics and plant performance, the authors provide a detailed framework for understanding how traits are inherited and how they can be manipulated to produce more resilient and high-yielding harvests.This work serves as a vital resource for understanding the early 20th-century advancements in agricultural science and the transition toward systematic, science-based plant improvement. It remains a significant historical reference for students and professionals interested in botany, genetics, and the evolution of modern farming practices.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
