Genomic Selection for Crop Improvement serves as handbook for users by providing basic as well
as advanced understandings of genomic selection. This useful review explains germplasm use
phenotyping evaluation marker genotyping methods and statistical models involved in genomic
selection. It also includes examples of ongoing activities of genomic selection for crop
improvement and efforts initiated to deploy the genomic selection in some important crops. In
order to understand the potential of GS breeding it is high time to bring complete information
in the form of a book that can serve as a ready reference for geneticist and plant breeders.
