The use of wild relatives in crop improvement: a survey of developments over the last 20 years

2007-07-01

Abstract excerpt

The use of crop wild relatives (CWR) genes to improve crop performance is well established with important examples dating back more than 60 years. In this paper, we review available information on the presence of genes from CWR in released cultivars of 16 mandate crops of the CGIAR institutes, and some selected additional crops, focusing on the past 20 years--the period since a comprehensive review by Robert and C...
