gentic origins of traits such as intolerance to biotic and abiotic,along with the underlying physiological and genetic mechanisms.Multidisciplinary approach is used in the organization of information The importance alocated to the evolutionary organizationof species ,species complexes and varietal choices based on the prevailing agroeconomic context are also stressed. natural reproductivers mechanisms and possible deviations that could give rise to novel varietal structures and potential genetic exchanges with neighboring species Reviews of broad spectrum of biological and genetic knowledge acquired and synthesized by genticists and agronomists considered essential for the progress of genetic improvement programmes.Covers many topics which include methods for assessing genetic diversity and spatiotemporal variations vegetative and reproductivecycles,while sometimes accurately specifying details like leaf and inflorescenseemission rates
