简介

Summary: Publisher Summary 1 Hancock (horticulture, Michigan State University) has incorporated new information that has emerged over the past decade on plant evolution into this second edition of a discussion on plant evolution and crop origins. He describes the process of evolution in native and cultivated populations of plants, reviews when and where major crops were domesticated, and discusses the subsequent development of crops over time. The book is aimed advanced students and postgraduates studying in the areas of plant genetics and evolution and crop science, and is distributed by Oxford University Press. Annotation 漏2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)   Publisher Summary 2 This book is probably the only current volume to combine discussion of plant evolution with that of crop origins. The first edition was published in 1992 by Prentice-Hall, and has now been fully revised to reflect recent advances. Key features include: a description of the process of evolution in native and cultivated populations of plants; a review of when and where major crops were domesticated; discussion of the subsequent development of crops over time; and greater integration of the information on evolution and crop origins compared to the first edition. The book is aimed at advanced students and postgraduates.
