Buckwheat Germplasm in the World

Buckwheat Germplasm: Global Resources, Characterization and Utilization presents a comprehensive overview on this globally important crop from its general characterization and genetic diversity, particularly in Russia, China, India and Eastern Europe, but globally as well. Presenting the latest information on molecular marker development, genetics and phenotype analysis of new wild buckwheat accompanies insights into the nutritional values of this pseudocereal crop. Due to its short growth span, ability to grow at high altitudes and the high quality of its protein content, buckwheat continues to be explored as an important crop for addressing the food needs of the world. Ideal for researchers and advanced-level students seeking better understanding of the buckwheat germplasm. Summarizes all the reported and distributed buckwheat species in this world. Researchers can exchange the resources each other to breed new cultivarsClassifies buckwheat species based on Perennial and Annual from their growth span, Self-incompatible and Self-compatible from their flower morphology and characterizationFacilitates hybridization of different species INDICE: 1.
