Marker-assisted selection : current status and future perspectives in crops, livestock, forestry and fish / Rome : Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, 2007. xix, 471 p. : ill. (some col.) ; 25 cm. This book provides a comprehensive description and assessment of the use of marker-assisted selection for increasing the rate of genetic gain in crops, livestock, forestry and farmed fish, including the related policy, organizational and resource considerations. It continues FAO's tradition of dealing with issues of importance to agricultural and economic development in a multidisciplinary and cross-sectoral manner. As such it is hoped that the information and options presented and the suggestions made will provide valuable guidance to scientists and breeders in both the public and private sectors, as well as to government and institutional policy and decision-makers.
