Infos

Polyploidy plays an important role in biological diversity, trait
improvement, and plant species survival. Understanding the
evolutionary phenomenon of polyploidy is a key challenge for plant
and crop scientists. This book is made up of contributions from
leading researchers in the field from around the world, providing a
truly global review of the subject. Providing broad-ranging
coverage, and up-to-date information from some of the world's
leading researchers, this book is an invaluable resource for
geneticists, plant and crop scientists, and evolutionary
biologists.

Autor

Z. Jeffrey Chen is the D. J. Sibley Centennial Professor in Plant Molecular Genetics, at the University of Texas at Austin. James A. Birchler is Curators' Professor of Biological Sciences, Division of Biological Sciences, at the University of Missouri.
