New title: Seed Biology and Yield of Grains

Seed Biology and Yield of Grain Crops

D Egli, Department of Agronomy, University of Kentucky, USA

The food supply to an expanding world population is based on grain crops harvested for their seeds. This means that understanding the process of seed growth and its regulation is crucial in our efforts to increase production in order to meet the needs of that population.

This book examines the determination of grain crop yield from a unique perspective, by concentrating on the influence of the seed itself. It is essential reading for those concerned with seed science and crop yield, including agronomists, crop physiologists, plant breeders, and extension workers.
