Until recently plant breeders have relied primarily on classical tools to develop new crop cultivars providing a raw plant-derived material for further processing. With elapsing time plant breeding is becoming modernized and perceived as a multi-disciplinary and coordinated process in which a large number of tools and elements of conventional breeding techniques, bioinformatics, molecular genetics, molecular biology and genetic engineering are being utilized and integrated. With the advent of biotechnology, breeders started to incorporate rapidly DNA technology tools in their breeding work. In recognition of the current state of methods and their application, this conference addresses both classical and biotechnological tools used for germplasm enhancement and plant breeding. Economics called also green economics of plant breeding and plant products is barely touched in this conference, though it is huge in turnover terms of associated industries, employment and trade. It is estimated that in EU-27 there are around 17 million farms with more than doubled number of workforce. (jacket). Codice articolo 112917
