商品描述

Plant breeding has played a significant role in the development of human civilizations. Conventional plant breeding has significantly improved crop yield by genetically manipulating agronomically important traits. However, it has often been criticized for ignoring indigenous germplasm, failing to address the needs of the marginal and the poor farmers, and emphasizing selection for broad instead of local adaptation. Participatory plant breeding (PPB) is the process by which the producers and other stakeholders are actively involved in a plant-breeding programme, with opportunities to make decisions throughout. The Working Group on Participatory Plant Breeding (PPBwg) was established in 1996 under the framework of the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research (CGIAR). Research in PPB can promote informed participation and trust in research among consumers and producers, and in recent years, PPB has had a significant impact on food production by quickly and cost-effectively producing improved crop varieties. At the same time, there has been significant research in the area. PPB offers significant advantages that are particularly relevant to developing countries where large investments in plant breeding have not led to increased production, especially in the marginal environments. In addition to the economic benefits, participatory research has a number of psychological, moral, and ethical benefits, which are the consequence of a progressive empowerment of the farming communities. PPB can empower groups such as women or less well-off farmers that are traditionally left out of the development process.
This book explores the potential of PPB in the coming decades. The topic is more relevant since international breeding efforts for major crops are aimed at decentralizing local breeding methods to better incorporate the perspective of end users into the varietal development process. The first book incorporating the upcoming research on this novel breeding approach, it reviews the important tools and applications of PPB in an easy-to-read, succinct format, with illustrations to clarify these complex topics. It provides readers with a basic idea of participatory plant breeding as well as advances in the field and insights into the future to facilitate the successful integration of farmers into breeding programmes.

This book is a valuable reference resource for agriculturists, agricultural advisers, policy makers, NGOs, post-doctoral students and scientists in agriculture, horticulture, forestry and botany.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

植物育種在人類文明的發展中扮演了重要角色。傳統植物育種透過基因改造農業上重要的性狀，顯著提高了作物產量。然而，它常常受到批評，因為忽視了本土種質，未能滿足邊緣和貧困農民的需求，並強調對廣泛適應性而非地方適應性的選擇。參與式植物育種（Participatory Plant Breeding, PPB）是生產者和其他利益相關者積極參與植物育種計劃的過程，並在整個過程中有機會做出決策。參與式植物育種工作組（PPBwg）於1996年在國際農業研究磋商小組（CGIAR）的框架下成立。PPB的研究可以促進消費者和生產者對研究的知情參與和信任，近年來，PPB在食品生產方面產生了顯著影響，能夠快速且具成本效益地生產改良作物品種。同時，這一領域的研究也取得了顯著進展。PPB提供了顯著的優勢，特別是對於那些在植物育種上未能帶來產量增加的大型投資的發展中國家，尤其是在邊緣環境中。除了經濟利益外，參與式研究還具有多種心理、道德和倫理上的好處，這是農業社區逐步賦權的結果。PPB可以賦權於傳統上被排除在發展過程之外的群體，如女性或較不富裕的農民。

本書探討了未來幾十年PPB的潛力。這一主題變得更加相關，因為國際對主要作物的育種努力旨在去中心化地方育種方法，以更好地將最終使用者的觀點納入品種開發過程。這是第一本整合即將到來的這一新型育種方法研究的書籍，以易讀且簡潔的格式回顧PPB的重要工具和應用，並附有插圖以澄清這些複雜的主題。它為讀者提供了參與式植物育種的基本概念，以及該領域的進展和未來的見解，以促進農民成功融入育種計劃。

本書是農業學者、農業顧問、政策制定者、非政府組織、博士後研究生以及農業、園藝、林業和植物學科學家的寶貴參考資源。
