About this book

The programme for the genetic improvement of soft wheat began in Tunisia in 1909, initiated by François BOEUF. Research has continued to the present day, resulting in the development of all the soft wheat varieties currently used by our farmers. The aim of this study is to assess the variability in genetic progress across 15 soft wheat varieties introduced into production over the last century in Tunisia. In contrast to late-maturing genotypes (older varieties), early-maturing genotypes achieved the highest grain yields. The genetic progress achieved (1.7 qx/year) does not reflect the actual genetic gain of all varieties over the past century. Indeed, it merely reflects the difference in varietal genetic potential under the conditions of the Boulifa region during this growing season.

Breeding Oilseed Crops for Sustainable Production: Opportunities and Constraints
<i> <p>Breeding Oilseed Crops for Sustainable Production: Opportunities and Constraints</i> presents key insights into accelerating the breeding of sustainable and superior varieties. </p> <p>The book explores the genetic engineering/biotechnology that has played a vital role in transforming economically important traits from distant/wild species to cultivated varieties, enhancing the quality and quantity of oil and seed yield production. Integrated nutrient management, efficient water management, and forecasting models for pests diseases outbreaks and integrated pest and pest management have also added new dimensions in breeding for sustainable production. With the rise in demand, the scientific community has responded positively by directing a greater amount of research towards sustainable production both for edible and industrial uses. </p> <p>Covering the latest information on various major world oil crops including rapeseed mustard, sunflower, groundnut, sesame, oilpalm, cotton, linseed/flax, castor and olive, this book brings the latest advances together in a single volume for researchers and advanced level students. </p>
