Description matérielle : 1 online resource
Note(s) : This book provides an up-to-date overview of international research work on sorghum.
Its comprehensive coverage of our current understanding of transgenic development
in sorghum and the strategies that are being applied in molecular breeding make this
book unique. Important areas such as genetic diversity, QTL mapping, heterosis prediction,
genomic and bioinformatics resources, post-genome sequencing developments, molecular
markers development using bioinformatics tools, genetic transformation and transgenic
research are also addressed. The availability of the genome sequence along with other
recent developments in sequencing and genotyping technologies has resulted in considerable
advances in the area of sorghum genomics. These in turn have led to the generation
of a large number of DNA-based markers and resulted in the identification and fine
mapping of QTL associated with grain yield, its component traits, biotic and abiotic
stress tolerance as well as grain quality traits in sorghum. Though a large volume
of information has accumulated over the years, especially following the sequencing
of the sorghum genome, until now it was not available in a single reference resource.
This book fills that gap by documenting advances in the genomics and transgenic research
in sorghum and presenting critical reviews and future prospects. "Sorghum Molecular
Breeding" is an essential guide for students, researchers and managers who are involved
in the area of molecular breeding and transgenic research in sorghum and plant biologists
in general
