Summary |
"Crop Ferality and Volunteerism brings together research pioneers from various disciplines including the crop, plant, and weed sciences to discuss the threats we face from volunteerism in this transgenic era. The book provides thorough coverage of crop and plant molecular biology and genetics as they pertain to ferality and weeds. Throughout the text, the authors consider whether attempts to improve crops through recombinant technology that cultivates transgenic crops in monoculture dangerously increases the creation of undetected, potentially feral volunteers."--BOOK JACKET |
