Springer - Genomics of Crucifer's Host-Resistance Book

Genomics of Crucifer's Host-Resistance by Springer provides essential fundamental and applied knowledge for plant scientists and breeders. This text focuses on developing crop varieties that are resistant to major pathogens affecting crucifers. It covers a wide range of threats including Albugo, Alternaria, Erysiphe, Hyaloperonospora, Plasmodiophora, Leptosphaeria, Sclerotinia, Turnip mosaic virus, Verticillium, and Xanthomonas. Readers will gain insight into the latest biotechnological approaches used in modern agriculture. The content details the identification of R genes and the methods used to incorporate these genes into agronomically superior varieties. By exploring the principles of host resistance and identifying R-gene sources, this book serves as a technical resource for those working to improve crop resilience through genomic science.
