Tools & Techniques of Plant Molecular Farming

Tools & Techniques of Plant Molecular Farming by Chittaranjan Kole, Anurag Chaurasia, Kathleen L. Hefferon, Jogeswar Panigrahi
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2023 | 420 Pages | ISBN : 9819948584 | 32.5 MB

This edited book is an in-depth compilation of recent tools and techniques, concepts and strategies used globally in plant molecular farming (PMF) for the cost-effective bulk production of recombinant proteins, secondary metabolites, and other biomolecules. The book presents an overview of success stories of PMF applications from developing countries to address poverty, achieve zero hunger, good health and well-being, thus achieving the UN SDGs 1, 2, and 3.

Cereal Diseases: Nanobiotechnological Approaches for Diagnosis and Management

Cereal Diseases: Nanobiotechnological Approaches for Diagnosis and Management by Kamel A. Abd-Elsalam, Heba I. Mohamed
English | PDF,EPUB | 2022 | 403 Pages | ISBN : 9811931194 | 48.5 MB

New ways to improve cereal crops against fungal, bacterial, and viral diseases are covered in this book that was put together by a group of experts. These include genetics, genome editing systems, and nano-biotechnological tools. Cereal crops are mainly the world's leading food crops and feed a large share of the world population. However, external factors, such as pathogens, have often threatened their productivity. Like wheat, rice, maize, oats, barley, millet and storage, etiology, epidemiology, and diseases in cereal crop management.

Genomic Designing for Biotic Stress Resistant Pulse Crops

Genomic Designing for Biotic Stress Resistant Pulse Crops by Chittaranjan Kole
English | PDF | 2022 | 459 Pages | ISBN : 3030910423 | 6.7 MB

Biotic stresses cause yield loss of 31-42% in crops in addition to 6-20% during post-harvest stage. Understanding interaction of crop plants to the biotic stresses caused by insects, bacteria, fungi, viruses, and oomycetes, etc. is important to develop resistant crop varieties. Knowledge on the advanced genetic and genomic crop improvement strategies including molecular breeding, transgenics, genomic-assisted breeding and the recently emerging genome editing for developing resistant varieties in pulse crops is imperative for addressing FPNEE (food, health, nutrition. energy and environment) security. Whole genome sequencing of these crops followed by genotyping-by-sequencing have facilitated precise information about the genes conferring resistance useful for gene discovery, allele mining and shuttle breeding which in turn opened up the scope for 'designing' crop genomes with resistance to biotic stresses.
