Omschrijving
This book reviews key developments in tomato breeding, including developing improved varieties with desirable traits such as drought or pest resistance. It also discusses ways of improving cultivation techniques as well as pests, diseases and their control.
" …provides a very effective background to genetic tools to control viral and other diseases, thus complementing the earlier parts of the book which draw attention to the strategic importance of exploiting genetic diversity to develop crops with greater resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses…The book will certainly benefit plant breeders and those involved with genetic engineering technology to develop new crop varieties."
International Pest Control
“Overall, the book contains some very good overviews on recent developments and potential areas for future developments in tomato improvement…the book should be commended on its breadth of coverage…and should be a valuable resource for tomato focused researchers and growers.”
Plant Pathology
"Authors have made remarkable efforts to balance background with basic-applied research findings enhancing the understanding of the various issues and techniques involved in tomato production, physiology, breeding and genetics…It is a valuable resource of modern knowledge for research academics and graduate students, and also applicable to consultants and managers involved in tomato R&D, such as those in seed and chemical companies."
Prof. Daniel Leskovar in Chronica Horticulturae
Dr Autar Mattoo is Research Leader of the Vegetable Laboratory at the USDA’s Henry A. Wallace Research Center, USA is internationally-renowned for his research on tomato physiology. Dr Avtar Handa as Professor of Horticulture at Purdue University, USA and is internationally-renowned for his research on tomato physiology. Dr Kenneth Boote is Emeritus Professor in the Department of Agronomy at the University of Florida, USA. He is widely regarded as a pioneer in crop modelling, helping to develop the DSSAT software application program that simulates growth for over 40 different crops. He is presently serving as Co-Lead for Crop Modeling in AgMIP, the global Agricultural Model Intercomparison and Improvement Project. Amongst his many distinctions, Professor Boote is a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, the Crop Science Society of America and the American Society of Agronomy.
