Biotechnologie Vol. 2: Plante Biotechnologie
Description
Le world food production has increased substantially en le past century et le current growth rate de four major crops (maize, rice, wheat et soybean) is 0.9-1.6 % per year. At this rate, le production de these crops is likely to increase by 38-67% by 2050. Le current world population de 7.2 billion is projected to reach 9.6 billion by 2050. Alarmingly, to provide food security to this growing population, le global food production may need to increase by 60-110%. But le researchers are facing le challenges de loss de soil fertility, dwindling water resources et crop losses due to insects, pests et diseases. All these challenges call pour harnessing le powerful tools de molecular biology et biotechnology en agriculture. Plante biotechnology is a term that includes a variety de techniques used to transfer beneficial traits from one plant to another. This volume 2 de 12 volume series sur Recent Développements en Biotechnologie is a source de rich information sur le recent advances en le field de plant biotechnology. Le volume 2 provides discussion sur le following topics: • Moléculaire markers avec special reference to SNP genotyping • Moléculaire markers based genetic diversity analysis de food crops • Induced systemic resistance pour insect pest management • Micro RNUn en nutrient homeostasis en plants • Wild Arachis pour genetic improvement de cultivated peanut • Role de genetic engineering en protecting le peanut crop • Biotechnological approaches pour improvement de pulse crops • Selectable marker genes pour plant transformation • Strategies pour increasing efficiency de maize breeding • Moléculaire marker studies pour rust resistance et quality traits en wheat • Oxidative stress et antioxidant defense system en plants • Antioxidants pour healthy lifestyle • Isolation de novel stress-inducible plant proteins • Un overview de plant antifreeze proteins • Issues et future prospects en transgenic plants • Biotechnological potential de plant-associated endophytic bacteria • Biologique control de plant pathogens by le strains de Bacillus sp. Le volume 2 contains 17 chapters contributed by 70 researchers and/or academicians from 5 nations, namely, Brazil, China, Inde, Serbia et United States de America giving an overview de le various research activities being carried out en different parts de le world sur Plante Biotechnologie.
