Special Issue on Crop Variety Improvements

Varietal improvement means combining desirable characteristics in one and multiplying it. Plant breeders select plant varieties with desired character and cross them. The developed offsprings combine the qualities of both plants. These varieties are multiplied and supplied to farmers. The goal of this special issue is to provide a platform for scientists and academicians all over the world to promote, share, and discuss various new issues and developments in this area of Crop Variety Improvements.

In this special issue, we invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original research and review articles that explore Crop Variety Improvements. In this special issue, potential topics include, but are not limited to:

• Hybridization breeding
• Mutation breeding
• Transgenic breeding
• Cell engineering breeding  
• Physical mutation 
• Crop production management
• Nutrient management
• Molecular physiology and genetic improvement of drought resistance in crops
• Crop production and improvement in yields

Authors should read over the journal’s For Authors carefully before submission. Prospective authors should submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript through the journal’s Paper Submission System.
