Description
Summary:The sunflower crop is occupying an increasing role in the oilseed world production, and particularly within the geographic Europe, for human and industrial purposes. The advantages of the sunflower crop are also increasing due to its environmentally safe status. But there is a need to increase the oil yield per ha in order to improve the competitiveness of farmers and oil industry. This paper is reviewing the genetic, genomic and bioinformatic resources being necessary to handle research programs aiming to provide information for plant breeding as well as more fundamental knowledge. Beside of them, phenotyping tools and modeling approaches appear to be the new frontier for the genetic dissection of traits of interest.
