This book aims to bring the reader the best recent research on the subjects of horticulture, botany and plant diversity, with a focus on molecular and genetic issues. Part one presents studies in the molecular basis of plant genetic diversity. Topics examined include genetic diversity, habitat fragmentation and epigenetic variations, genetic diversity of seed orchard crops, and the use of soil microorganisms to improve plant growth. Part two moves to explore topics in horticulture. Here, findings are presented on topics including the assessment of diversity of grapevine gene pools from Romania and Moldova, and a study of home gardens in rural and periurban contexts in Argentina. Finally, part three examines topics in botany. The reader will find new insights into issues such as the secretory glands of the Asphodelus aestivus, and the morphological and molecular study of the Ardisia crenata complex. Drawing on expert research from around the world, this book offers crucial insights into advanced topics in plant science.
