Next Generation Plant Breeding - IntechOpen 2018 - 1 electronic resource (160 p.)

Open Access

Following the green revolution and transgenic crop development, another revolutionary progress has been experienced in plant breeding in the last decade with the application of marker-assisted selection (MAS), next-generation sequencing (NGS), and gene editing techniques together with omic technologies, including genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and phenomics. Thus, this book is structured into two sections: ""Marker-Assisted Breeding"" and ""RNA-seq and Gene Editing in Plants,"" which aim to provide a reference for students, instructors, and scientists on recent innovative advances in plant-breeding programs to cultivate crops for tomorrow.
