Abstract: Illustrated Flora of Food Crops and Their Wild Related Plants in China systematically examines the botanical and morphological characteristics of China’s major food crops, such as rice, wheat, corn, sweet potato, potato, mung bean, and buckwheat. Featuring more than 5 000 color photos and 200 line drawings, it offers a comparative study that highlights the kinship and internal connections between cultivated and wild species. The book is an invaluable resource for breeders, offering a comprehensive morphological and genetic database that aids in the development of high-yielding, high-quality, and disease-resistant crop varieties.
