This book was written by soybean experts to cluster in a single publication the most relevant and modern topics in soybean breeding. It is geared mainly to students and soybean breeders around the world. It is unique since it presents the challenges and opportunities faced by soybean breeders outside the temperate world.
Experience shows that biotic stresses occur with different levels of intensity in nearly all agricultural areas around the world. The occurrence of insects, weeds and diseases caused by fungi, bacteria or viruses may not be relevant in a specific year but they usually harm yield in most years. Global warming has shifted the paradigm of biotic stresses in most growing areas, especially in the tropical countries, sparking intense discussions in scientific forums. This book was written with the idea of collecting in a single publication the most recent advances and discoveries concerning breeding for biotic stresses, covering all major classes of biotic challenges to agriculture and food production. Accordingly, it presents the state-of-the-art in plant stresses caused by all microorganisms, weeds and insects and how to breed for them. Complementing Plant Breeding for Abiotic Stress Tolerance, this book was written for scientists and students interested in learning how to breed for biotic stress scenarios, allowing them to develop a greater understanding of the basic mechanisms of resistance to biotic stresses and develop resistant cultivars.
Em 2019 o Brasil tornou-se o maior produtor mundial de soja, reflexo do elevado nível tecnológico da indústria agrícola nacional, com incremento acima de 20% na produtividade nos últimos dez anos. Utilizada na alimentação humana e animal e matéria-prima para a indústria de biodiesel, lubrificantes, tintas e plásticos, entre outros, a soja tem sido um dos principais produtos exportados pelo País. Sua produção atingiu um recorde na temporada 2020/21, com 137 milhões de toneladas, e um recorde de volume exportado. Soja: do plantio à colheita destaca a importância econômica da soja, sua botânica e fenologia, exigências edafoclimáticas, características agronômicas dos cultiv...
