Future prospects of GM plants. 330 $aThis book presents up-to-date information on various vector-less/direct (physical, chemical) and vector-mediated/indirect (Agrobacterium-mediated) plant transformation techniques. It summarizes various strategies that facilitate a gene from lower organism to be expressed in higher plants and also in silico designing of synthetic gene for higher expression. It also highlights the importance of strong promoters to drive the expression of transgene(s). This book encompasses the advantages and drawbacks of cisgenesis and transgenesis, their implications towards sustainable crop improvement, and their future prospects. The importance, limitations, challenges, recent developments, and future prospects of molecular pharming is also discussed. The book concludes with a chapter that summarizes the major contribution of GM-crops towards global food security and economy, advances in genome editing for crop improvement, challenges and risk associated with the release of GM-crops, and the future of GM technology. This book is meant for students and researchers in the field of life sciences, food science, and agriculture. . 606 $aAgriculture 606 $aBiotechnology 606 $aPlant biotechnology 606 $aFood science 606 $aPlant genetics 606 $aAgriculture 606 $aBiotechnology 606 $aPlant Biotechnology 606 $aFood Science 606 $aPlant Genetics 606 $aConreu$2thub 606 $aPlantes transgèniques$2thub 606 $aTransformació genètica$2thub 606 $aGenètica vegetal$2thub 608 $aLlibres electrònics$2thub 615 0$aAgriculture. 615 0$aBiotechnology. 615 0$aPlant biotechnology. 615 0$aFood science. 615 0$aPlant genetics. 615 14$aAgriculture. 615 24$aBiotechnology. 615 24$aPlant Biotechnology. 615 24$aFood Science. 615 24$aPlant Genetics. 615 7$aConreu 615 7$aPlantes transgèniques 615 7$aTransformació genètica 615 7$aGenètica vegetal 676 $a631.5233 700 $aKoul$b Bhupendra$0892738 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9910590064403321 996 $aCisgenics and Transgenics$92908642 997 $aUNINA
