Crop Ferality and Volunteerism
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
In a world where there is more starvation than ever, ferality is one more threat to agricultural production that affects world food security. The management of weeds and weedy crops, and the creation of agronomic and plant breeding solutions is also a pressing subject. Bringing together pioneer scientists from crop science, plant science, and weed science, this timely, multidisciplinary book discusses the issues of crop ferality from the basic biology and genetics through the agronomy to the economics involved. The book goes beyond the science of the problem to discuss the economic impact of crop ferality and volunteerism with strong coverage of crop and plant molecular biology and genetics.
