Plant breeding is one of the multidisciplinary subjects, practiced by people and plant breeders. Plant breeding and molecular biology techniques can be used to alter the composition of plant matter to make it easier to process. The discipline of plant breeding has undergone transformation due to the assimilation of the rapid developments in molecular biology. The existing books on plant breeding deal mainly with the classical genetics and basic plan breeding approaches. In our book on Advances in Crop Breeding: Conventional Breeding vs. Biotechnological Approaches we have covered the basic principles in plant breeding, utilization of the genetic resources and also explained the modern biotechnological tools used to enhance the plant breeding process. This book has twenty five chapters which cover the basic principles of plant breeding in the first five chapters. Chapter 6 to eleven cover the applied plant breeding approached which has been extensively used by the plant breeders in the post green revolutionary era. In the next succeeding chapters we have made compressive effort to bring out the modern and advance breeding approached to enhance the plant breeding system which is rationally utilized by present day plant breeders.
The book is written in simple and easy to understand language. Illustrations and photographs have been cited wherever they were expected to facilitate comprehension of the subject under discussion and back references have been quoted in each chapter. We hope that this book will be the ready handout study material for the Masters and Doctoral degree students of Genetics and plant breeding.
We are happy and grateful for the publishing house to giving us the oppurnities to the edit and to be part of the these excellent book.
