- Information
Description
This book presents the first comprehensive compilation of genome research on the Hevea brasiliensis rubber tree.
The genomes of Hevea tree clones (cultivars) are described by three major international groups.
Chapters on omics-driven investigations address a broad range of topics including genome annotation and utilisation, transcriptome and gene family analysis, genetic mapping, metabolic pathways in latex and molecular breeding.
Additionally, an overview of fundamental rubber biology, especially on laticifers, provides a historical background that is relevant to rubber genome analysis.
The book concludes with several perspectives on the future needs of rubber investigations and prospects of rubber genomics.
Given the scope of topics, this book will appeal to researchers and university students working in genomics and biotechnology of the rubber tree, and to rubber breeders with an interest in non-conventional approaches to trait analysis, selection and breeding.
