Plant Biotechnology

Changing times and environmental patterns have pushed humankind to search for a better gene even in the case of plants. The very thought of getting the desired characteristics led to the birth of a new discipline called plant biotechnology. Scientists have been breeding plants to increase yields, improve the overall quality, and minimize the harmful characteristics in crops for many years. In the last decade, plant breeders have been able to introduce beneficial traits in plants more precisely using a variety of techniques developed under the field of plant biotechnology. This book helps readers to understand the advances in this discipline by providing the most up-to-date data and researches from across the globe. With state-of-the-art inputs by acclaimed experts of this field, it targets students and professionals alike.
