Applications of Genome Engineering in Plants

Understand the keys to creating the food of the future

Genome engineering in plants is a field that has made enormous strides in recent years. In particular, the CRISPR-Cas system has been used in a number of crop species to make significant leaps forward in nutritional improvement, stress tolerance, crop yield, and more. As scientists work to meet global food needs and foster sustainable agriculture in a changing world, genome engineering promises only to become more important.

Applications of Genome Engineering in Plants details the history of, and recent developments in, this essential area of biotechnology. It describes advances enabling nutritional improvement, nutraceuticals improvement, flavonoid enrichment, and many more crop enhancements, as well as subjects such as biosafety and regulatory mechanisms. The result is a thorough and essential overview for researchers and biotech professionals.

Applications of Genome Engineering in Plants readers will also find:

  • Chapters on trans-gene free editing or non-transgenic approaches to plant genomes
  • Detailed discussion of topics including nanotechnology-facilitated genome editing, engineering for virus resistance in plants, and more
  • Applications of genome editing in oil seed crops, vegetables, ornamental plants, and many others

Applications of Genome Engineering in Plants is ideal for academics, scientists, and industry professionals working in biotechnology, agriculture, food science, and related subjects.

Santosh Kumar Upadhyay is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Botany, Panjab University, Chandigarh, India. His research focuses on functional genomics in plants, especially the use of the CRISPR-Cas system for genetic engineering.
