The main production constraints, such as climate change, biotic stresses, abiotic stresses, soil nutrition deficiency problems, problematic soils, etc., have to be addressed on an urgent basis. More than 50% of human calories are from three major cereals: rice, wheat, and maize. The harnessing of genetic diversity by novel allele mining assisted by recent advances in biotechnological and bioinformatics tools will enhance the utilization of the hidden treasures in the gene bank. Technological advances in plant breeding will provide some solutions for the biofortification, stress resistance, yield potential, and quality improvement in staple crops. The elucidation of the genetic, physiological, and molecular basis of useful traits and the improvement of the improved donors containing multiple traits are key activities for variety development. High-throughput genotyping systems assisted by bioinformatics and data science provide efficient and easy tools for geneticists and breeders. Recently, new breeding techniques applied in some food crops have become game-changers in the global food crop market. With this background, we invited 18 eminent researchers working on food crops from across the world to contribute their high-quality original research manuscripts. The research studies covered modern food crop genetics and breeding. 606 $aResearch & information: general$2bicssc 606 $aBiology, life sciences$2bicssc 606 $aTechnology, engineering, agriculture$2bicssc 610 $adry direct-seeded rice 610 $aearly vigor 610 $aQTL 610 $acandidate gene 610 $aphenotyping 610 $aEMS 610 $aMutMap 610 $amutagenesis 610 $aCLE7 610 $atropical maize 610 $afasciation 610 $amapping 610 $aradish 610 $amicrospore culture 610 $aregeneration rate 610 $aoutcrossing 610 $atwo-way pseudo-testcross model 610 $aOryza sativa L. 610 $aPPDK 610 $aflo4-5 610 $afloury endosperm 610 $arice 610 $aallelopathy 610 $ayield 610 $aHYV 610 $aTongil 610 $aindica 610 $ajaponica 610 $aSNP 610 $amolecular breeding 610 $awheat quality 610 $awheat milling 610 $awheat hardness 610 $apuroindolines 610 $awater absorption capacity 610 $acrop genetics 610 $aSolanum tuberosum 610 $aabiotic stress 610 $aphenylpropanoids 610 $aessential amino acid 610 $atranscriptome 610 $asmall RNA 610 $acomparative genomics 610 $anutrition 610 $adays to heading 610 $aHd1 610 $aGhd7 610 $aHd16 610 $achromosome segment substitution lines (CSSLs) 610 $aquantitative trait locus (QTL) 610 $amarker-assisted selection (MAS) 610 $acold tolerance (CT) 610 $agene editing 610 $agenetically modified 610 $agenetically modified organism (GMO) 610 $acrop breeding 610 $aribonucleoprotein complex (RNP) 610 $agenetic screening 610 $alandraces 610 $agenetic diversity 610 $apopulation structure 610 $aWest Africa 610 $amaize improvement 610 $aDArTseq markers 610 $aco-expression network 610 $adrought-tolerant-yield 610 $areproductive-stage drought 610 $aqDTYs 610 $atranscriptomics 610 $awatermelon 610 $apentatricopeptide-repeat (PPR) gene family 610 $acomprehensive analysis 610 $aexpression profiling 610 $aflesh color 610 $acanola 610 $aBrassica napus 610 $agenetics 610 $agene technology 610 $agenomics 610 $adisease resistance 610 $aCSSLs 610 $adrought stress 610 $a?KDML105? rice 610 $alow-temperature germinability 610 $ainterspecific cross 610 $ainteraction 610 $apeanut 610 $acore collection 610 $agenome-wide association study 610 $alinkage disequilibrium 615 7$aResearch & information: general 615 7$aBiology, life sciences 615 7$aTechnology, engineering, agriculture 700 $aChin$b Joong Hyoun$4edt$01295451 702 $aSwamy$b Malikarjuna$4edt 702 $aYu$b Yeisoo$4edt 702 $aChin$b Joong Hyoun$4oth 702 $aSwamy$b Malikarjuna$4oth 702 $aYu$b Yeisoo$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910557371803321 996 $aRecent Advances in Genetics and Breeding of Major Staple Food Crops$93023460 997 $aUNINA
