The book delves into the breeding objectives for legumes and oilseed crops, emphasizing the need to enhance grain yield, protein quality, and digestibility while reducing toxic factors and cooking time. It highlights the challenges posed by static yields due to limited genetic variability and the susceptibility of these crops to diseases. Advances in in vitro manipulation and recombinant DNA technology offer new avenues for improvement, particularly in well-studied oilseeds like Brassica and soybean, while noting the need for further research on food legumes.
