Recent Plant Biotechnological Tools for Genetic Improvement

Description

Plant biotechnology is a set of techniques used to adapt plants for specific needs or opportunities. Situations that combine multiple needs and opportunities are common.These techniques combined with recent advances in developmental, cellular and molecular genetics and using conventional plant breeding have turned plant biotechnology into an exciting research field with significant impact on agriculture, horticulture and forestry. There has also been a growing interest in the use of suspension and immobilised plant cell cultures and organ cultures for the production of fine chemicals and some specific biotransformation reactions. This textbook “Recent Plant Biotechnological Tools for Genetic Improvement” provides you better understanding of all aspects of the genetic engineering process, for enhancing efficiency, precision, and proper expression of the added genes or nucleic acid molecules. This book published a high-impact original research and inclusive reviews with an emphasis on molecular plant sciences and their applications through plant biotechnology.
