Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Understanding the factors affecting crop yields is crucial in our efforts to provide food for the growing human population. This book examines grain crop yields from a new and unique perspective, by concentrating on the influence of seed growth and its regulation. It examines all aspects of
seed growth and development, including environmental and genetic effects on growth rate and length of filling period. It discusses the effect of the seed on the two main yield components, individual seed weight and number of seeds per unit area, and evaluates the concepts and models developed in
terms of crop management.
