Statistical Methods and Biometrical Techniques in Plant Breeding

Biometrics and statistics have become integral to the understanding of genetics and plant breeding experiments. It is important to gain knowledge of these aspects for expertise in practical applications of life sciences and to excel in competitive examinations. This book covers ARS (Agricultural and Research Scientist)and SRF (Senior Research Fellow) syllabus on statistical and biometrical concepts in genetics and plant breeding, prescribed by ICAR. It is written in simple question-answer pattern for easy and quick comprehension of the subject, followed by multiple choice section for self-evaluation. This book is envisaged to facilitate preparations for competitive examinations like ICAR NET/ARS, JRF, SRF, CSIR NET/JRF.
