Full Description
Climate Smart Crops: Enhancing Resilience and Adaptation is a comprehensive overview of modern technologies and strategies to improve plants in terms of food, feed, fodder, fibre and fuel production for human well-being in the face of climate change. With focus on the latest advances in plant molecular mapping and genome sequencing, it demonstrates how genomics-assisted strategies can be utilized to produce improved plants with climate-smart traits. Significant successes in the areas of molecular breeding, transgenics and genomics have contributed to revolutionary modifications in cereal-vegetable-fruit-oilseed crop-improvement strategies and methods, but there is still work to be done. Understanding the strategies and approaches that are most appropriate for enhancing production is key to effective, efficient, and timely advancement of further crop yield quality and quantity through crop genetics, genomics, breeding, biotechnology, and in the disciplines of agronomy, agriculture, agroforestry, horticulture and phytoremediation. Climate Smart Crops: Enhancing Resilience and Adaptation provides an excellent basis for current state of the science for climate smart crops as well as and inspiring future research.
