All these events are due to the concerted global efforts directedatthedelineationofgenomesandtheirimprovement. Geneticlinkagemapsbasedonmolecularmarkersarenowavailableforalmost allplantsofsignificantacademicandeconomicinterest, andthelistofplantsis growingregularly.Alargenumberofeconomicgeneshavebeenmapped,tagged, cloned,sequenced,orcharacterizedforexpressionandarebeingusedforgenetic tailoring of plants through molecular breeding. An array of markers in the ar- senal from RFLP to SNP; tools such as BAC, YAC, ESTs, and microarrays; local physicalmapsoftargetgenomicregions;andtheemploymentofbioinformatics contributingtoallthe“-omics”disciplinesaremakingthejourneymoreandmore enriching.Mostnaturally,theplantswecommonlygrowonourfarms,forests,or- chards,plantations,andlabshaveattractedemphaticattention,anddeservedlyso.

This is the primary reason I conceived of a series on genomemappingandmolecularbreedinginplants. Thereisnotasingleorganismonearththathasnoeconomicworthorconcern forhumanity.Informationongenomesoflowerorganismsisabundantandhighly usefulfromacademicandappliedpointsofview.Informationonhigheranimals including humans is vast and useful. However, we first thought to concentrate only on the plants relevant to our daily lives, the agronomic, horticultural and technical crops, and forest trees, in the present series. We will come up soon withcommentariesonfoodandfiberanimals,wildlifeandcompanionanimals, laboratory animals, fishes and aquatic animals, beneficial and harmful insects, VI PrefacetotheSeries plant- and animal-associated microbes, and primates including humans in our next“genomeseries”dedicatedtoanimalsandmicrobes.Inthisseries,82chapters devoted to plants or their groups have been included. We tried to include most oftheplantsinwhichsignificantprogresshasbeenmade.Wehavealsoincluded preliminaryworksonsomeso-calledminorandorphancropsinthisseries.We would be happy to include reviews on more such crops that deserve immediate nationalandinternationalattentionandsupport.Theextentofcoverageinterms ofthenumberofpages,however,hasnothingtodowiththerelativeimportanceof aplantorplantgroup.Nordoesthesequenceofthechaptershaveanycorrelationto theimportanceoftheplantsdiscussedinthevolumes.Asimpleruleofconvenience hasbeenfollowed.

In general, the lead authors of most chapters organizedtheirteams.Iextendmygratitudetothemall. Thenumberofplantsofeconomicrelevanceisenormous.Theyareclassified fromvariousangles.Ihavepresentedthemusingthemostconventionalapproach. The volumes thus include cereals and millets (Volume I), oilseeds (Volume II), pulse, sugar and tuber crops (Volume III), fruits and nuts (Volume IV), vegeta- bles (Volume V), technical crops including fiber and forage crops, ornamentals, plantationcrops,andmedicinalandaromaticplants(VolumeVI),andforesttrees (VolumeVII). A significant amount of information might be duplicated across the closely relatedspeciesorgenera,particularlywhereresultsofcomparativemappinghave beendiscussed.However,somereaderswouldhavelikedtohavehadachapteron a particular plant or plant group complete in itself. I ask all the readers to bear withmeforsuchredundancy. Obviouslythecontentsandcoverageofdifferentchapterswillvarydepending on the effort expended and progress achieved. Some plants have received more attention for advanced works. We have included only introductory reviews on fundamentalaspectsonthemsincereviewsintheseareasareavailableelsewhere. On other plants, including the “orphan” crop plants, a substantial amount of informationhasbeenincludedonthebasicaspects.Thisapproachwillbereflected intheillustrationsaswell.

UniversityPark, ChittaranjanKole Pennsylvania, 10January2006 Preface to the Volume Cereals and millets form the leading group of economic plant species.

Deliberations on genome mapping and molecular breeding in some cereals, particularlyrice,wheat,andmaize,wouldrequireatleastacompletevolumefor each crop. It is widely recognized that a hundred pages or so on each of these cerealscannotdothemjustice.Theauthorshaverightlydevotedmorepagestothe advancedstudiesonthesecrops;reviewsonthebasicstudiesonthemarewidely available.Bycontrast,roadmapsforgenomeresearchonothercerealsandmillets havebeenthoroughlydelineatedbytheauthors.

Editing this volume was therefore highly enriching and enjoyable for me thanks to the interactions and intellectual exchanges from the authors, old colleagues,andresearchstudents.
