This volume is intended to bridge traditional research with modern
molecular investigations on sunflower. It begins with basic information
about the sunflower plant and germplasm diversity (Chapter 1), followed
by classical genetics and traditional breeding (Chapter 2), history and
achievement of genome mapping (Chapter 3). Four chapters review activities
on mapping single-gene traits (Chapter 4), QTL mapping (Chapter 5), gene
cloning (Chapter 6) and marker-assisted breeding (Chapter 7). Since
sunflower is one of the most important oil crops, a chapter is devoted to the
genetic regulation of seed oil content (Chapter 8). Transgenic sunflower, an
interesting topic as old as the technology itself, is also discussed (Chapter 9).
The book ends with a chapter on future prospects of the sunflower crop
(Chapter 10). We hope that this book is useful to sunflower researchers as
well as to people working with other crop species.
