To face this looming threat, significant progress in developing new breeding strategies has been made over the last few decades. The second volume of Genomics and Breeding for Climate-Resilient Crops describes various genomic and breeding approaches for the genetic improvement of the major target traits. Topics covered include: flowering time; root traits; cold, heat and drought tolerance; water use efficiency; flooding and submergence tolerance; disease and insect resistance; nutrient use efficiency; nitrogen fixation; carbon sequestration; and greenhouse gas emissions. 606 $aPlant breeding 606 $aGenomics 606 $aClimatic changes 615 0$aPlant breeding. 615 0$aGenomics. 615 0$aClimatic changes. 676 $a581.232 676 $a633.104233 701 $aKole$b Chittaranjan$0871409 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910741151803321 996 $aGenomics and breeding for climate-resilient crops$94191424 997 $aUNINA
