This new two-volume set provides comprehensive coverage of soybean—its uses, vulnerabilities, and most recent discoveries, providing a holistic approach that covers a wide range of areas for soybean crop improvement.
The first volume emphasizes aspects of taxonomy, domestication of soybean, and its evolution. Comprised of four sections, it covers the history, taxonomy, distribution, and economic importance of soybeans. It also discusses soybean breeding, seed systems, product development as well as product profiles of soybean. Volume 2 looks at the current trends, genomic information, conventional breeding techniques along with their challenges, and the need for modern methods in the cultivation of soybeans. This volume explores the genetics, genomics, and proteomics of soybeans, discussing advances and improvements in soybeans, soybean diseases, the use of soybeans in medicine, and other future uses of soybeans.
