This book offers comprehensive coverage of the advances in genetics and genomics research on rice. It presents special topics pertaining to the rice genome, including the documentation of tools and resources for functional analysis of the rice genome.

Rising interest in biofuels, concern over a looming global water crisis, a need for precise, environmentally benign weed control: these factors are driving new research on the Saccharinae clade. This book reviews recent progress and anticipates new advances.

This book comprehensively reviews the recent progress in the development of structural and functional genomics tools in the Triticeae species. It attempts to bring the field up-to-date on the genetics and genomics of important crop plants and genetic models.

This is the first book on Rosaceae genomics. It covers progress in recent genomic research among the Rosaceae, grounding this firmly in the historical context of genetic studies and in the application of genomics technologies for crop development.
