Discover how mutation and irradiation are guiding modern plant breeding and opening new paths to crop diversity.

This nonfiction collection summarizes a 1960 symposium on mutation and plant breeding, exploring how mutagenic techniques can complement traditional breeding. It highlights the need to couple new methods with solid knowledge of cytogenetics and material potential, and it surveys results across ornamentals, fruit trees, and other vegetatively propagated plants. The material emphasizes practical considerations, including timing, dosage, and propagation practices that help yield stable, valuable changes.

How irradiation and other mutagenic tools interact with existing breeding methods
Practical approaches to inducing and selecting useful mutations in bulbs, ornamentals, and fruit trees
The difference between mutation breeding and conventional breeding, and why both may work together
Examples of mutations with commercial potential and the challenges of stabilizing them

Ideal for readers of plant genetics and breeding history, as well as practitioners seeking historical context for mutation-based techniques.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into discussions and research conducted by the Committee on Plant Breeding and Genetics regarding the use of induced mutations in plant breeding. As a comprehensive volume, it gathers knowledge from a variety of invited papers, formal discussions, and volunteer contributions across the areas of theory and practical implications. It encompasses an in-depth analysis of the nature and characteristics of mutations, the various mutagenic agents and how they affect genetic material, and ways these mutations can be utilized in plant breeding. Moreover, the book considers the evaluation of such mutations and explores possibilities for the future of mutation breeding. It positions the role of induced mutations within the broader context of plant breeding techniques and advancements, providing valuable insights for readers interested in this field. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
