| There is a pressing need for the publication of a comprehensive and up-to-date textbook on breeding ornamental flower crops, in light of the vast amount of research that has been conducted and the accumulated knowledge over the years. This textbook aims to keep readers informed of the latest developments in the field and to provide them with essential information on the cultivar improvement program for 37 ornamental and flower crops.
The opening chapters of the book offer a foundation in the subject, including its history and development, as well as an overview of the global efforts in ornamental plant breeding. The main focus of the book is on the breeding of economically important ornamental and flower crops in tropical, sub-tropical, and temperate regions. Each chapter features a comprehensive bibliography to aid readers in locating further details on the past and recent work done on the crop(s) in question. To facilitate understanding, certain topics within each chapter are broken down into shorter sub-sections. This book serves as a valuable reference source for flower scientists and educators, and it will also be useful to professionals such as enlightened growers, nurserymen, flower traders, agricultural extension officers, and policy makers who wish to gain a deeper understanding of the subject matter. However, a basic understanding of botany and genetics is recommended to fully appreciate the content. |
