Reviews
From the reviews:
“Many authors have contributed to this book’s 15 chapters, each of which focuses upon a legume or forage crop and associated species. … The book is likely to be a useful resource for a range of scientists … . If plant breeders are involved in breeding a range of forage legumes, then reference to this book might be useful. … those involved in the conservation of plant genetic resources might be the real users of this book … .” (Brian Ford-Lloyd, Experimental Agriculture, Vol. 48 (1), 2012)Editors and Affiliations
