The methods that breeders use depend directly on the type of cultivar used to produce a commercial crop. he four most common types of cultivars are (a) clonal cultivars (b) synthetic cultivars (c) pure-line cultivars and (d) hybrid cultivars. These types of cultivars will be discussed throughout the book, alongside review questions for self-study.

Emasculation of the flower is not necessary because if the exposed stigma is not pollinated, it will dry up and be unreceptive by the time the anthers of the flower are mature enough to shed pollen.

In this text, you will apply the principles learned in Plant Breeding Methods to design a breeding program that makes effective use of available resources and alternative breeding strategies. By the end of this volume, readers will be able to describe the process for developing clonal, pure-line, hybrid, and synthetic cultivars.
