Hardcover. Zustand: New. 2nd Edition. This book attempts to present a readable format on plant breeding principles and their application, based on the collective experience of the three authors (Stoskopf et al.) but with a heavy dependence on the scientific literature. This is also long-awaited replacement for older texts in senior undergraduate plant breeding. The authors have produced an up-to-date treatment of the art and science of plant breeding in language and have concisely discussed all of the main topics in plant breeding from Genetics to field-plot design while adding thoughtful discussions on emerging technologies and breeding methods. Plant breeding books are usually difficult reading, but this book by three knowledgeable professionals is an exception. The format is readable and easily understood, contents are complete and heavily referenced. A feature that this reviewer liked is a detailed figure captions that presents the new information, not the usual "rehash" of the text-material. Figures usually concentrate on specific plant applications, while the text emphasizes general concepts and principles. The three authors, representing separate disciplines, developed the book from a course for senior under-graduate students, also it has an application for the students in horticulture, field crops and forestry. Twenty-three chapters cover a range of topics form the history of plant breeding through genetic variation, hybridization, breeding methods, in-breeding and cross-breeding, hybrids, mutations, asexual breeding and commercial aspects. A highly recommended work for libraries maintaining agricultural, horticultural and other plant science collections. (jacket).

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This volume examines the interrelated fields of food security, energy security and sustainable agriculture as the key to a stable global agricultural platform and is arranged in six parts. The first part is focused on policy considerations relating to food and energy security and sustainable agriculture. The authors from this part include Former Under Secretary of Agriculture Gale Buchanan, Former Under Secretary of Energy Raymond Orbach (Chapter 1), Stephen Hughes, Bryan Moser and William Gibbons (Chapter 2) and Thomas Redick (Chapter 3). Part II addresses soil and water, which are two of the key components in secure and sustainable food production. Authors from this part are Jerry Hatfield (Chapter 4) and Mahbub Alam, Sharon Megdal et al. (Chapter 5). The third part covers sustainable and secure food production specifically addressing genetically modified traits in Chapter 6 (James McWilliams) and omega-3 fatty acids in Chapter 7 (Jay Whelan et al.). Agronomic implications relative to food security and sustainable agriculture are described in Part IV. Authors include Ravi Sripada, Pradip Das et al. (Chapter 8), Duska Stojsin, Kevin Matson and Richard Leitz (Chapter 9) and S.H. Lee, David Clay and Sharon Clay (Chapter 10). International sustainable agriculture and food security is addressed in Part V with authors Jeff Vitale and John Greenplate (Chapter 11), Julie Borlaug et al. (Chapter 12) and Sylvester Oikeh et al. (Chapter 13). The final part covers the use of chemicals in sustainable agriculture and food/energy security with Leonard Gianessi and Ashley Williams communicating the role of herbicides and Harold Reetz emphasizing the importance offertilizers both in maximizing crop yields to maintain a sustainable secure source for food production.
