Description
The significance of artificially induced mutations in cultivated plants has long been a point of controversy among (commercial) plant breeders. Today, mutation breeding, notably that of vegetatively propagated plants, is one of the accepted methods available to the breeder to improve his crop. other crops. The main aim of the authors of this book was to bring together all available and accessible references and to discuss them crop by crop. The discussions of individual crops were to be preceded by a few specific chapters, necessary to make the interaction between mutagenic treatment and plant material and its consequences for plant breeding understood.
