Techniques of Developing Hybrid in Vegetables Crops
Contents: Foreword Preface Introduction Techniques Of Developing Hybrids Exploitation of male sterility for hybrid production, Pollen sterility, Cytoplasmic male sterility, Problems in exploiting CMS, Genie male sterility (GMS), Problems in exploiting GMS, Cyto-genic male sterility (C-GMS), Problems in exploiting C-GMS, Staminal sterility, Functional male sterility, Positional sterility (Long styly), Exploitation of self-incompatibility for hybrid production, Single cross, Double crosses, Triple crosses, Advantages of triple cross hybrids, Disadvantages of triple cross hybrid, Problems in exploiting self incompatibility, Exploitation of dicliny for hybrid production, Monoecy in hybrid production, Dioecy in hybrid production, Hand emasculation and/or hand pollination, Use of gametocides. Conclusion And Future Line On Work Bibliography Glossary
India is on the verge of a breakthrough in establishing hybrids on a commercial scale for enhancing the production and productivity of vegetables. Present Government policy to freely import hybrid and boost vegetable production in the country, persistent demand of students, seed company and farmers keenness to shift to hybrid than traditional seed production and extension workers engaged throughout the country inspire us to bring out this book in most practical style and language. This book gives different approaches to develop the hybrids, the techniques involved with different breeding systems have been explained in clarity and illustrations for easy adoption at all levels. The information will be of immense value to the scientist, scholars, agencies and individuals involved in the development and propagation of hybrids in different vegetable crops.
