Volume 6 in the series Genome Mapping and Molecular Breeding in Plants
Technical Crops includes plants of great agricultural importance. One chapter is devoted to cotton, the most
important fiber crop on which significant progress in molecular genetic research has been made. Reviews
on oil palm, coffee, tea, cocoa and rubber describe traditional breeding and preliminary molecular results.
Genome Mapping and Molecular Breeding in Plants presents the current status of the elucidation and
improvement of plant genomes of economic interest. The focus is on genetic and physical mapping, positioning,
cloning, monitoring of desirable genes by molecular breeding and the most recent advances in genomics.
Of interest to researchers in Genetics, Genomics, Biotechnology, Agriculture, Plant Sciences, Plant Breeding
