To face this looming threat, significant progress in developing new breeding strategies has been made over the last few decades. The first volume of Genomics and Breeding for Climate-Resilient Crops presents the basic concepts and strategies for developing climate-resilient crop varieties. Topics covered include: conservation, evaluation and utilization of biodiversity; identification of traits, genes and crops of the future; genomic and molecular tools; genetic engineering; participatory and evolutionary breeding; bioinformatics tools to support breeding; funding and networking support; and intellectual property, regulatory issues, social and political dimensions.CropsGenetic engineeringTransgenic plantsCropsGenetic engineering.Transgenic plants.633.104233Kole Chittaranjan871409MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910741152903321Genomics and breeding for climate-resilient crops4191424UNINA
