A chapter on collection and conservation of safflower fives an idea of sampling strategy and current status of safflower germplasm in China.

The fourth chapter describes agronomic characters, yield components, resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses and quality characters of safflower, derived from the results of characterization and seed evaluation experiments carried out in china.
