Publisher's Synopsis
This book covers different aspects of genomics, genetics, breeding, resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses and comparative genomics of the adzuki bean (Vigna angularis). It also discusses the origin, domestication and evolution of this important legume crop. Completion of the whole genome assembly of adzuki bean will facilitate the identification of agronomical important genes and accelerate this crop's improvement.
This work is a guide for those who are interested in gene discovery, comparative genomics and molecular breeding and is particularly useful for scientists, breeders and students who are involved in legume research.
