Abstract
Abstract
This chapter focuses on the origin, geographical distribution, morphological, physiological and phenological characteristics, cultivation history, breeding, vegetative propagation methods and molecular genetics and genomics of chestnuts (Castanea spp.). The importance of developing various genetic manipulation methods for the genetic improvement of Castanea spp. germplasm is also discussed.
