Trade Review
From the reviews:
"This book represents an excellent set of (reviewed) reviews that explains what is happening in the world of rice genomic research now. … This is a useful book for genetic resources workers because understanding the way in which the genome works is generating huge numbers of mutants required for forward (from phenotype to genome sequence) and reverse genetics (genome sequence to phenotype)." (D. Vaughan, Genetic Resources and Crop Evolution, Vol. 54, 2007)
