Forage plant breeding has entered the genome era. This timely book reviews the latest advances in the development and application of molecular technologies which supplement conventional breeding efforts for our major forage crops. It describes the plethora of new technologies and tools now available for high-throughput gene discovery, genome-wide gene expression analysis, production of transgenic plants, genome analysis and marker-assisted selection as applied to forage plants. Detailed accounts are presented of current and future opportunities for innovative applications of these molecular...

Gene Transfer to Plants Within a decade of the first recoveries of transgenic "model" plants, gene trans- fer is an established and routine technique in numerous laboratories around the world. It contributes to the rapid progress in basic and applied plant sciences in disciplines as diverse as biochemistry, physiology, developmental biology, breeding, food sciences, and biotechnology (Lindsey 1992; Willmitzer and Topfer 1992; Kishore and Somerville 1993; Nessler 1994). Following years of unsuccessful experiments with variations in feeding iso- lated DNA to plant tissues and organs, gene...
