Full Description
This book highlights the transformative impact of CRISPR-Cas9 in modern agriculture. It explains how this precise and efficient gene-editing technology enhances crop resilience to biotic stresses like pests, pathogens, and viruses, as well as abiotic stresses such as drought, salinity, heat, and cold. By targeting key genes responsible for plant defense and stress responses, CRISPR enables the development of high-yield, climate-resilient crops. The book emphasizes CRISPR's simplicity, cost-effectiveness, and potential to improve global food security, making it a cornerstone of sustainable agricultural biotechnology.
