Often it is difficult toknowtheprecisemeaningofmanytermsandtoaccuratelyinterpretspecific concepts of plant breeding. Most dictionaries and glossaries available are highly specific or fragmentary. Until now, no attempt has been made to provideacomprehensivecompilationofplantbreedingterms.Thisdictionaryincludes the specific terms of plant breeding and terms that are adjusted from other disciplines. Moreover, the intent was to create a book that includes not only present terms, but also some terms used during the long history of plant breeding. In addition, this book offers most of the words used by a plant breeder and seed producer together in one source. In order to also serve students, teachers, and research workers, the book is supplemented with breeding schemes, tables, examples, and a list of crop plants, including a few details.
