Rezensionen

From the reviews:
"This book forms part of a series on the relevance of wild relatives in crop improvement, in this case cereals. All major and most minor cereals are included, including the 'pseudocereal' buckwheat. ... The book is best regarded as an introduction to each genus." (Brain Forster, Experimental Agriculture, Vol. 47 (4), 2011)
