Genetics and Genomics Applied to Sunflower Breeding

Since sunflower domestication by pre-hispanic American cultures at least 3000 BC, the use of empiric and scientifically based genetics led to an amazing genetic diversification of the crop going from sophisticated nutraceutical applications up to ornamental purposes, including the traditional confec...
