Recent progress in biotechnology and genomics has expanded the plant breeders horizon providing a molecular platform on the traditional plant breeding, which is now known as plant molecular breeding . Although diverse technologies for molecular breeding have been developed and applied individually for plant genetic improvement, common use in routine breeding programs seems to be limited probably due to the complexity and incomplete understanding of the technologies. This book is intended to provide a guide for researchers or graduate students involved in plant molecular breeding by...
