| Résumé : |
Edited by the highly respected and always outspoken Johnathan Gressel, Crop Ferality and Volunteerism brings together pioneers from the crop, plant, and weed sciences to discuss the growing threat of ferality and volunteerism to world food security. This compelling work provides thorough coverage of crop and plant molecular biology and genetics as it pertains to ferality and weeds. It then goes beyond the science of the problem to discuss the potential economic and socioeconomic impact of the problem, particularly in relationship to rice. Readers will discover a wealth of information about the overall biology and management of weeds and weedy crops, with many examples of ferality considered. [Résumé éditeur] |
