Notă biografică
Prof. Chittaranjan Kole, presently working as the Project Coordinator of two international consortia - International Climate Resilient Crop Genomics Consortium (ICRCGC) and International Consortium on Phytomedomics and Nutriomics (ICPN), is globally renowned for his lifetime and original contributions in the fields of genetics, genomics, breeding, biotechnology and nanotechnology, for which he was honored with the Outstanding Crop Scientist Award by the International Crop Science Society in 2012. His works and editing acumen have been appreciated worldwide by several pioneering scientists, including seven Nobel Laureates, for their impact on science and society.
Textul de pe ultima copertă
This edited book provides a comprehensive overview of modern strategies in fruit crop breeding in the era of climate change and global warming. It demonstrates how advances in plant molecular and genomics-assisted breeding can be utilized to produce improved fruit crops with climate-smart traits. Agriculture is facing a number of challenges in the 21st century, as it has to address food, nutritional, energy and environmental security. Future fruit varieties must be adaptive to the varying scenarios of climate change, produce higher yields of high-quality food, feed, and fuel and have multiple uses. To achieve these goals, it is imperative to employ modern tools of molecular breeding, genetic engineering and genomics for ‘precise’ plant breeding to produce ‘designed’ fruit crop varieties.
