From the reviews:
“Wild crop relatives are gold mines of valuable resources for the genetic improvement of cultivated crops. … Thirty-three authors from 11 countries have contributed to this very well-edited volume. … Considerable details are presented on gene functions and uses and potential for commercial exploitation. … It is a valuable and easy to read reference source with the latest information on wild crop relatives in oilseeds for students, teachers and scientists in the private and public sectors.” (S. Shanmugasundaram, Experimental Agriculture, Vol. 48 (1), 2012)Editors and Affiliations
