Abstract

Food needs are considerably increasing due to the rapid growth of the world population and the food or feed industry. However, food producers seem unable to meet consumers’ increasing and varied food needs. Breeding activities must be more intensive to solve the problem. Plant breeding is a method that exploits the genetic potential of plants to maximize the expression of plants’ genetic prospects under certain environmental conditions (Guzhov, 1989; Stoskopf et al., 1993). Plant breeding aims to maximize plants’ genetic potentials by assembling new superior cultivars that are high-yield and high-quality, resistant to biotic and abiotic constraints.
