Discover the latest edition of this authoritative textbook on plant biotechnology and genetic energy
Plant biotechnology is a field of research and development in which scientific techniques are brought to bear on the creation and modification of new, beneficial plants and strains. Biotechnological techniques can be used to add nutritive value, increase resistance to diseases and pests, increase yields, and more. The production of biotech crops has increased over one hundred times since their introduction into commercial agriculture in 1996, making them the most rapidly-adopted crop category in the history of modern agriculture.
Plant Biotechnology and Genetics is the essential introduction to this thriving research subject. Beginning with an overview of basic plant biology and genetics, it then moves to the fundamental elements of biotechnology. Now fully updated to reflect the latest research advances and technological breakthroughs, it continues to be a must-own for readers interested in the future of food production and more.
Readers of the third edition of Plant Biotechnology and Genetics will also find:
New chapters covering topics like genome editing, chloroplast genome engineering, and synthetic biology
Updates throughout to incorporate increased coverage of haploid production, genomic selection, and more
Summary and discussion questions in each chapter, along with a companion website incorporating images and lecture materials
Plant Biotechnology and Genetics is ideal for advanced undergraduate and masters students in plant biotechnology courses, as well as professionals seeking a helpful reference guide.
