Seed Storage of Horticultural Crops - S.d. Doijode - Bog - Taylor & Francis Inc - Plusbog.dk

Maintain viability with these techniques for proper seed storage! Healthy, viable seeds are the foundation for sustainable crop production, while poorly kept seeds can result in low germination and crop loss. Seed Storage of Horticultural Crops suggests appropriate strategies to help farmers and breeders store seeds of all kinds. This unique compendium gathers information from a wealth of scientific research and presents it in an easy-to-use format. Seed Storage of Horticultural Crops begins with a section on seed morphology and physiology. In subsequent sections, detailed information is provided for storage of the seeds of fruits, vegetables, and ornamental plants from tropical, subtropical, and temperate climates. Seed Storage of Horticultural Crops provides specific details on the factors affecting seed viability, including: - selecting and preparing seeds for storage - conditions of air, light, temperature, and moisture - methods of seed invigoration, including priming, magnetism, and growth regulators - favorable conditions for germination - - eliminating problems such as insects and fungal infection This comprehensive volume is an essential reference for agronomists, students and educators, researchers, heritage seed collectors, and farmers. Richly illustrated with figures, tables, and photographs, Seed Storage of Horticultural Crops will help you obtain bountiful harvests, sustain growth, and preserve genetic diversity.

Hybrid Seed Production in Vegetables - Amarjit S. Basra - Bog - Taylor & Francis Inc - Plusbog.dk

Hybrid Seed Production in Vegetables - Amarjit S. Basra - Bog - Taylor & Francis Inc - Plusbog.dk

Produce hardy, high-yield vegetables with hybrid seeds! From the Preface, by Amarjit S. Basra: “The phenomenon of heterosis, also referred to as ''hybrid vigor,’underlies much of the improvement in crop yields achieved in the twentieth century. The exploitation of heterosis in crop production is of vital importance in facing the challenge of providing food and nutritional security for an ever-increasing human population. “The effective use of heterosis has fostered the development of a worldwide seed industry. Rapid advances in plant breeding and associated seed production technologies have served to enhance the competitiveness of hybrids by increasing crop and seed yield per hectare, reducing the costs involved, and improving seed quality.” Hybrid Seed Production in Vegetables: Rationale and Methods in Selected Crops will help crop scientists and growers increase the quality and yield of vegetables such as: - cucumbers - cabbage - pumpkins - squash - peppers - onions - gourds - - and the fruits watermelon and winter melon. - This valuable book provides up-to-date research about heterosis, cultivars, hybrids, and molecular markers to help you get the most quality and quantity out of your seeds. Containing suggestions and methods for overcoming male plant sterility, inbreeding, and challenges to pollination, Hybrid Seed Production in Vegetables will help you successfully breed hybrid plants to produce bountiful and healthy crops.
