Book Synopsis

Plant biotechnology offers an array of powerful tools and techniques that can revolutionize the way we cultivate crops, enhance their nutritional value, and address critical challenges such as climate change, pests, and limited resources. Through understanding the genetic makeup of plants and manipulating it using scientific techniques, we can develop crops that are more resistant to pests and diseases, more tolerant of abiotic stresses such as drought and salinity, and more nutritious. Ultimately this helps us to produce more food with fewer resources and less environmental impact. As the global population continues to grow, the need for sustainable and efficient agricultural practices becomes increasingly pressing.

This book describes the latest advances in genetic engineering, molecular biology, and stress physiology, and explores the ethical and regulatory considerations that underpin this transformative science.
