Genomic Designing for Abiotic Stress Resistant Pulse Crops
This book presents deliberations on molecular and genomic mechanisms underlying the interactions of crop plants to the abiotic stresses caused by heat, cold, drought, flooding, submergence, salinity, acidity, etc., 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 FHNEE (food, health, nutrition, energy, and environment) security. Whole genome sequencing of these crops followed by genotyping-by-sequencing has provided precise informatio...
Breeding Climate Resilient and Future Ready Oilseed Crops
This edited book covers the application of modern genomics tools for developing climate-smart oilseed cultivars. The book's prime focus is on utilizing available oilseed genomic resources and application of next-generation genetics and breeding tools, viz. genome-wise association mapping, genomic selection, genome editing and accelerated breeding pipelines and their efficacy for rapid development and delivery of stress-resilient oilseeds cultivars. Oilseeds are crucial for human and animal nutrition and cater to diverse industrial applications. Besides oil content, the oilseed meal possesses proteins and a higher proportion of essential amino acids, which benefit human well-being. Additional...
The Chickpea Genome
This book sheds new light on the chickpea genome sequencing and resequencing of chickpea germplasm lines and provides insights into classical genetics, cytogenetics, and trait mapping. It also offers an overview of the latest advances in genome sequencing and analysis. The growing human population, rapid climate changes and limited amounts of arable land are creating substantial challenges in connection with the availability and affordability of nutritious food for smallholder farmers in developing countries. In this context, climate smart crops are essential to alleviating the hunger of the millions of poor and undernourished people living in developing countries. In addition to cereals, gr...
Legume Breeding in Transition: Innovation and Outlook
Legumes (family Fabaceae) comprise a diverse range of crops grown worldwide, which are important constituents of sustainable agriculture and harbour a role in improving human and livestock health. Legumes serve as a rich source of plant-based proteins, rank second in nutrition value after cereals, and are ideal to supplement a protein-deficient cereal-based human diet. Legumes also provide other essential services to agriculture through their ability to fix atmospheric nitrogen, recycle nutrients, enhance soil carbon content, and diversify cropping systems. Legume production and seed quality are affected by a range of biotic (pests, insect diseases, and weeds) and abiotic stresses (drought, ...
