Heterozygosis in Evolution and in Plant Breeding

<p>Heterozygosis in Evolution and Plant Breeding Volume 243 explores the significance of heterozygosity in the fields of evolutionary biology and agricultural science. Authored by Edward M. East and Herbert Kendall Hayes this work delves into the genetic principles underlying heterozygosis and its implications for both natural selection and crop improvement.</p><p>The book examines how the genetic diversity arising from heterozygosity contributes to the adaptability and resilience of plant species. It also investigates the practical applications of these principles in plant breeding programs offering insights into the development of higher-yielding and more robust crop varieties. This volume remains a valuable resource for geneticists botanists and agricultural scientists interested in the intersection of genetics evolution and plant breeding.</p><p>This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
