The Book Presents A Comprehensive Account Of The Concept And Genesis Of Diverse Biometrical/Statistical Models As Applied To Plant Breeding Experiments Under Different Situations. Generation And Statistical Treatment Of Data; Presentation, Interpretation And Inferences Of Results; Merits, Demerits And Situations Of Applicability Of Models Are All Explicated For Their Adequate And Appropriate Usage In Plant Breeding. The Whole Volume Comprising 25 Chapters Has Been Zipped Into Five Sections Elucidating; General Statistical/Biometrical Parameters And Field Designs (Chapters 1-4), Multivariate Analysis Of Genetic Divergence (Chapters 6-7), Genotype X Environment Interaction And Stability Parameters (Chapters 8-10), Analysis Of Nature Of Gene Action And Variance Components (Chapters 11 -23), And Lastly The Unique Analysis Of Statistical And Genetical Parameters Related To Selection And Mutation Experiments (Chapters 24-25) In Plant Breeding. Simplification Of The Bewildering Complexities Of Biometrical Notations And Procedures In A Language Which Could Easily Be Grasped By Biologists/Geneticists Having Little Or No Statistical Background Is The Hallmark Of The Treatise. Like A Ready-Reckoner, This Work Offers An Efficient Key To Plant Breeding Data-Management For Both Students And Professional Plant Breeders Alike In Pursuit Of Their Research Goals.

Marker-assisted plant breeding involves the application of molecular marker techniques and statistical and bioinformatics tools to achieve plant breeding objectives in a cost-effective and time-efficient manner. This book is intended for beginners in the field who have little or no prior exposure to molecular markers and their applications, but who do have a basic knowledge of genetics and plant breeding, and some exposure to molecular biology. An attempt has been made to provide sufficient basic information in an easy-to-follow format, and also to discuss current issues and developments so as to offer comprehensive coverage of the subject matter. The book will also be useful for breeders and research workers, as it offers a broad range of up-to-the-year information, including aspects like the development of different molecular markers and their various applications. In the first chapter, the field of marker-assisted plant breeding is introduced and placed in the proper perspective in relation to plant breeding. The next three chapters describe the various molecular marker systems, while mapping populations and mapping procedures including high-throughput genotyping are discussed in the subsequent five chapters. Four chapters are devoted to various applications of markers, e.g. marker-assisted selection, genomic selection, diversity analysis, finger printing and positional cloning. In closing, the last two chapters provide information on relevant bioinformatics tools and the rapidly evolving field of phenomics.

Recent major advances in the field of comparative genomics and cytogenomics of plants, particularly associated with the completion of ambitious genome projects, have uncovered astonishing facets of the architecture and evolutionary history of plant genomes. The aim of this book was to review these recent developments as well as their implications in our understanding of the mechanisms which drive plant diversity. New insights into the evolution of gene functions, gene families and genome size are presented, with particular emphasis on the evolutionary impact of polyploidization and transposable elements. Knowledge on the structure and evolution of plant sex chromosomes, centromeres and microRNAs is reviewed and updated. Taken together, the contributions by internationally recognized experts present a panoramic overview of the structural features and evolutionary dynamics of plant genomes.This volume of Genome Dynamics will provide researchers, teachers and students in the fields of biology and agronomy with a valuable source of current knowledge on plant genomes.

The Indian Society of Genetics and Plant Breeding was established in 1941 in recognition of the growing contribution of improved crop varieties to the country's agriculture. Scientific plant breeding had started inIndia soon after the rediscovery of Mendel's laws of heredity. The Indian Agricultural Research Institute set up in 1905 and a number of Agricultural Colleges in different parts of the country carried out some of the earliest work mostly inthe form of pure-line selections. In subsequent years, hybridization programmes in crops like wheat, rice, oilseeds, grain legumes, sugarcane and cotton yielded a large number of improved cultivars with significantly higher yields. A turning point came in the 1960s with the development of hybrids in several crops including inter-specific hybrids in cotton. And when new germplasm with dwarfing genes became available in wheat and rice from CIMMYT and IRRI, respectively,Indian plant breeders quickly incorporated these genes into the genetic background of the country's widely grown varieties with excellent grain quality and other desirable traits. This was to mark the beginning of modem agriculture in India as more and more varieties were developed, characterized by a high harvest index and response to modem farm inputs like the inorganic fertilizers . India's green revolution which has led to major surpluses offood grains and othercommodities like sugar and cotton has been made possible by the work of one of the largest groups of plant breeders working in a coordinated network.
