This book presents readers with a grand picture of modern horticulture from various 

aspects such as the classification of horticultural plants, growth and development laws, 

genetic breeding, cultivation management, pest control, post harvest treatment, and 

marketing.

In terms of horticultural plant classification, the book elaborates in detail on the 

characteristics and classification criteria of various horticultural plants such as flowers, 

fruit trees, vegetables, and ornamental trees, allowing readers to have a clear understanding 

of the diversity of horticultural plants. For the growth and development of plants, from 

seed germination, seedling growth to flowering and fruiting, the physiological processes 

and influencing factors were deeply analyzed, such as the regulatory mechanisms of 

environmental conditions such as light, temperature, water, and soil on the growth of 

horticultural plants, providing a theoretical basis for scientific cultivation.

The chapter on genetic breeding focuses on the application of modern biotechnology 

in horticultural plant breeding, such as gene editing, molecular marker assisted selection 

and other advanced technologies. These technologies accelerate the cultivation process 

of excellent varieties, enabling horticultural plant varieties to constantly update and 

meet market demands for quality, resistance, yield and other aspects. In the cultivation 

management process, the book combines practical cases to explain the cultivation modes, 

fertilization and irrigation techniques, shaping and pruning methods of different horticultural 

plants, emphasizing the concept of eco-friendly cultivation and advocating green and 

sustainable horticultural production methods.

The section on pest and disease prevention and control provides a detailed introduction 

to the identification, occurrence patterns, and comprehensive prevention and control 

strategies of various pests and diseases. It emphasizes the importance of green prevention 

and control methods such as biological and physical control, reduces the use of chemical 

pesticides, and ensures the quality and safety of horticultural products. The chapter on 

post harvest processing and marketing focuses on the preservation, processing, packaging, 

transportation, and marketing strategies of horticultural products, pointing out the key role 

of post harvest processing in extending the shelf life of horticultural products and enhancing 

product added value. At the same time, market trends are analyzed to provide marketing 

ideas for horticultural practitioners.

This book is rich in content and scientifically practical. It is not only suitable for 

students majoring in horticulture to study deeply as a textbook, but also for horticulture 

practitioners to improve their professional skills as a reference book. It is also an excellent 

reading material for horticulture enthusiasts to understand the development trends of modern 

horticulture, which helps to promote the modernization of the horticulture industry and the 

transformation and application of horticultural scientific and technological achievements.
