Plante Génétique Ingénierie Series Vol 7: Metabolic Ingénierie et Moléculaire Farming - I
Description
Plantees are le most abundant et cost effective renewable resource uniquely adapted pour synthesis de several thousands de metabolites that are used as food, feed, fuel, medicines et raw materials pour le various industries. Unfortunately, our food crops do not contain these metabolites en sufficient amount to meet out le nutritional et therapeutic needs to maintain optimal human health. Le improvements en nutritional et therapeutic qualities de plants have inadequately been achieved previously by le traditional methods de plant breeding. Recent advances en gene technologies have made it possible to modify le existing or to introduce a new metabolic pathway en plants. Le book highlights le current understanding de applications de molecular/genetic techniques en controlling biosynthetic pathways, new technologies to manipulate le content et composition de starch, fructants, proteins, amino acids, fatty acids, vitamins (A, C, 0 et E), antioxidants, minerals, sterols, pigments, isoflavonoids, terpenoids, lignins, alkaloids et other secondary metabolites, recombinant proteins (vaccines, antibodies, pharmaceutical proteins), industrial enzymes, elimination de le production de toxic substances et decrease en allergenicity de food en crop plants to meet le human needs en a sustainable way. Le risk assessment et regulation de genetically modified (GM) foods have also been described. Such GM plants avec clear et direct health benefits pour le consumers should lead to greater acceptance de crop genetic engineering. Le leading world's experts en their respective areas have prepared le chapters de this monograph. Le book is valuable pour researchers, graduate students, scientists, planners, technocrats et industrialists working en le area de biotechnology, molecular biology, biochemistry, plant biology, plant physiology, genetics, agronomy, horticulture, agriculture, food et pharmaceutical sciences.
