商品描述

This edited book is a compilation of tangible research findings and actual experiences on various salt tolerant rice breeding programmes, that have been successfully practiced and continuing to do so by research centres in South East Asia, with major emphasis in India, Bangladesh and Philippines. Rice being one of the most important staple crops of the world, its production and productivity have to be kept on increasing so as to feed the burgeoning population. This is a very challenging task in the midst of shrinking resource base and arable lands in the face of climate change. Salt stress is the second major abiotic stress, next only to drought, which greatly affects rice production. To overcome this problem, development of improved salt tolerant rice cultivars coupled with appropriate package of practices, an ecologically sound and socially acceptable strategy should be developed which is well within the reach of marginal farmers. With rapid advances in molecular biology, mechanisms underlying the complexity of the trait are better understood now than before. Selection of appropriate parents, desired mapping populations, precise phenotyping are the key components to underpin the mapping and utilization of reliable QTLs. Understanding genetics of salt tolerance, identifying the robust molecular markers and targeted utilization of available molecular markers form the sound basis to develop the commercial products with more precision and speed. This book covers entire range of topics: starting from biophysical characterization of salt stressed areas in different rice ecologies, conventional and molecular breeding approaches for mapping salt tolerance and subsequent development of improved rice varieties for commercial cultivation and their societal impacts. This book is of interest to scientists, faculty, policy makers and administrators. It also serves as a resource guide to graduate students of agriculture particularly plant breeding, plant physiology, molecular biology and soil science.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本編輯過的書籍是一個彙編,收錄了在東南亞地區的研究中心成功實踐並持續進行的各種耐鹽水稻育種計畫的具體研究成果和實際經驗,主要集中在印度、孟加拉國和菲律賓。水稻是世界上最重要的主食作物之一,其產量和生產力必須不斷增加,以應對不斷增長的人口需求。在資源基礎和可耕地面積縮小的情況下,應對氣候變化是一項非常具有挑戰性的任務。鹽逆境是第二大重要非生物逆境,僅次於乾旱,對水稻生產有很大影響。為了克服這個問題,應該發展出改良的耐鹽水稻品種,並結合適當的栽培措施,制定一個生態合理且社會可接受的策略,以滿足邊緣農民的需求。隨著分子生物學的快速發展,現在對這一特性的複雜性有了更好的理解。選擇適當的親本,所需的遺傳圖譜群體,精確的表型分析是支撐可靠QTLs的定位和利用的關鍵組成部分。了解耐鹽性的遺傳學,確定強健的分子標記和有針對性地利用現有的分子標記,是開發具有更高精度和速度的商業產品的堅實基礎。本書涵蓋了整個範圍的主題:從不同水稻生態系中對受鹽脅迫區域進行生物物理特性描述,傳統和分子育種方法用於定位耐鹽性並進一步開發改良的水稻品種進行商業栽培及其對社會的影響。本書對科學家、教職員、政策制定者和管理者具有興趣。它也是農業研究生特別是植物育種、植物生理學、分子生物學和土壤科學的資源指南。
