Submit a ProposalOMICS-Based Approaches in Plant Biotechnology
 | Edited by Rintu Banerjee, Garlapati Vijay Kumar and S.P. Jeevan Kumar Copyright: 2019 | Status: Published ISBN: 9781119509936 | Hardcover | 342 pages | 40 illustrations Price: $225 USD  |
One Line Description
The book provides a detailed description of how OMICS can help crop science and horticulture to enhance crop yields, enhance resistance and boost nutritional values.
Audience
The information contained in the volume will help plant breeders, plant biotechnologists, plant biochemists, agriculture scientists and researchers as well as policy makers in using this applied research to focus on better crop breeding and stress adaptation strategies.

Description
Burgeoning world population, decreased water supply and land resources, coupled with climate change, result in severe stress conditions which is a great threat to the global food supply. To meet these challenges, exploring OMICS Technologies could lead to improved yields of cereals, tubers and grasses that may ensure food security. Improvement of yields through crop improvement and biotechnological means are the need-of-the-hour, and the current book OMICS-Based Approaches in Plant Biotechnology, reviews the advanced concepts on breeding strategies, OMICS technologies (genomics, transcriptomics and metabolomics) and bioinformatics that help to glean the potential candidate genes/molecules to address unsolved problems related to plant and agricultural crops. The first six chapters of the book are focused on genomics and cover sequencing, functional genomics with examples on insecticide resistant genes, mutation breeding and miRNA technologies. Recent advances in metabolomics studies are elucidated in the next 3 chapters followed by 5 chapters on bioinformatics and advanced techniques in plant biotechnology and crop breeding. The information contained in the volume will help plant breeders, plant biotechnologists, plant biochemists, agriculture scientists and researchers in using this applied research to focus on better crop breeding and stress adaptation strategies.
