 Rating: - Science, encouragement, and entertainmentDelightful! Deppe is a trained geneticist, and explains what equations are likely to govern the inheritance of vegetable traits. First and last, though, she describes vegetable breeding successes and failures - some have made it into your seed catalogues, some just make one neighborhood happy. Breeding vegetables to thrive in your climate and on your palate suddenly sounds possible - given patience - and like a great way to increase, not just preserve, diversity of food crops.
