Description:Apomixis is a difficult-to-analyze trait with a complex molecular basis and a substantive effect on the biology of a species. Thus, apomixis is an interesting characteristic for researchers and students working in different fields of plant science, agriculture and technological advances are enabling and making apomixis studies more common.
Apomixis in angiosperms: mechanisms, occurrences, and biotechnology provides a systematic introduction to the mechanisms of apomixis along with an overview of alternative methodologies for identifying apomixis, and a detailed reassessment of the occurrences of apomictic species among angiosperm families. Optional methods are illustrated with examples of all types of apomixis and biological levels of analysis, i.e., cells, ovules, seeds, and offspring. Data on apomictic species are collected in tables along with information on ploidy, type of apomixis and references. Occurrences of apomixis are briefly discussed in phylogenetic and evolutionary contexts. An outline of the molecular basis of apomixis in plants is presented, together with prospects and challenges that remain for its biotechnological exploitation.Features:A systematic overview of the mechanisms of apomixis and methodology for apomixis research.A reassessment of apomixis at the species level in angiosperm families.Tables summarizing relevant information on apomixis.Analyses occurrences of apomixis in phylogenetic and evolutionary contexts.Outlines the molecular basis and biotechnological perspective of apomixis breeding.This book presents an accessible overview of apomixis research and a curated dataset of apomictic species. It serves as a reference book for students, researchers, and citizen scientists interested in apomixis, as well as researchers, business innovators and entrepreneurs pursuing apomixis breeding. It can also be used as a textbook in graduate courses on plant reproduction.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
