Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Relation of Certain Biological Principles to Plant Breeding The last decade has brought about a change of heart in the two classes of workers, and a change in method in their work. The student of natural evolution and the follower of changes under domestication have recognized that they stand upon com mon ground, and as a result, the brilliant researches of a score or' more of recent investigators have made the prospects of gain in the practical side almost too alluring.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Application of Some of the Principles of Heredity to Plant Breeding While the discussion in these pages of principles that may be applied in the improvement of crops by breeding and selection will involve principles other than those discovered by Gregor Mendel, the fact that Mendel's principles are somewhat complex renders it necessary to state them in a general way before taking up the subject of plant improvement.

This book was released on 2017-10-29 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Plant Breeding in Relation to American Pomology One of the most significant facts in nature is that every species of plant which man has cultivated for any length of time has numerous forms, varieties, or strains. The. Practical horticulturist selects that form or strain which is best for cer tain purposes or for certain conditions. The plant breeder asks why or how these forms came about and how they can be improved. It is worthy of note, however, that until about a century ago the principal studies of plant life were made from wild forms rather than from domesticated species.

Download or read book Geopolitics and the Green Revolution written by John H. Perkins and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1997-12-14 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the last 100 years, the worldwide yields of cereal grains, such as wheat and rice, have increased dramatically. Since the 1950s, developments in plant breeding science have been heralded as a "Green Revolution" in modern agriculture. But what factors have enabled and promoted these technical changes? And what are the implications for the future of agriculture? This new book uses a framework of political ecology and environmental history to explore the "Green Revolution's" emergence during the 20th century in the United States, Mexico, India, and Britain. It argues that the national security planning efforts of each nation were the most important forces promoting the development and spread of the "Green Revolution"; when viewed in the larger scheme, this period can be seen as the latest chapter in the long history of wheat use among humans, which dates back to the neolithic revolution. Efforts to reform agriculture and mitigate some of the harsh environmental and social consequences of the "Green Revolution" have generally been insensitive to the deeply embedded nature of high yielding agriculture in human ecology and political affairs. This important insight challenges those involved in agriculture reform to make productivity both sustainable and adequate for a growing human population.
