Description
The Japanese Journal of Breeding, formerly a cornerstone publication in plant breeding research, delved into diverse aspects of crop improvement and genetics. Its scope encompassed conventional breeding methodologies, molecular approaches, and biotechnological innovations aimed at enhancing crop productivity, quality, and resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses. Key topics within the journal included germplasm evaluation, quantitative genetics, heterosis breeding, mutation breeding, and the development of novel breeding techniques. It also covered the genetic and physiological mechanisms underlying important agronomic traits, such as yield, disease resistance, and nutritional content. Indexed in databases like CAS and Web of Science (past indexing), the journal served as a valuable resource for plant breeders, geneticists, and agricultural scientists worldwide. While the journal may no longer be active, its historical contributions remain significant. Researchers can explore back issues to gain insights into the evolution of plant breeding strategies and techniques. Consider exploring related journals in the field of agricultural sciences for current research and findings.
