Description

Plant biotechnology is a field of agricultural science that makes use of scientific tools and techniques for the purpose of modifying plants. Some of the techniques and tools used within this field are genetic engineering, molecular markers, vaccines, molecular diagnostics and tissue culture. One of its major sub-domains is crop biotechnology where a desired trait from one species of plant is added to an entirely different species. These desired characteristics include flavor, growth rate and resistance to diseases and pests. There are diverse modification techniques which are used in plant biotechnology such as mutagenesis, polyploidy, protoplast fusion, transgenics and genome editing. This book elucidates the concepts and innovative models around prospective developments with respect to plant biotechnology. It aims to shed light on some of the unexplored aspects of this field. Coherent flow of topics, student-friendly language and extensive use of examples make this book an invaluable source of knowledge.
