基本説明
The eighth volume in the proposed 11 volume series on Handbook of Plant Breeding after the initial volumes on Vegetables, Cereals and Oil Crops. The book comprises temperate fruit species, nuts and other fruit crops as kiwi and grapes. A chapter on citrus breeding is included, since the crop is largely established in temperate areas where an active breeding activity is being carried out.
