Abstract excerpt
Artificially induced genetic variation is being used effectively to supplement or complement sources of natural origin for practical plant breeding. Thus, creating genetic variation uill become increasingly important as crop genetic resources become more difficult to obtain via plant exploration. The aritificial induction of useful genetic variation offers important elements that can be used for overcoming...
