Couverture de l’ouvrage Genomic Designing of Climate-Smart Cereal Crops

This book highlights modern methods and strategies to improve cereal crops in the era of climate change, presenting the latest advances in plant molecular mapping and genome sequencing.

Spectacular achievements in the fields of molecular breeding, transgenics and genomics in the last three decades have facilitated revolutionary changes in cereal- crop-improvement strategies and techniques. Since the genome sequencing of rice in 2002, the genomes of over eight cereal crops have been sequenced and more are to follow. This has made it possible to decipher the exact nucleotide sequence and chromosomal positions of agroeconomic genes. Most importantly, comparative genomics and genotyping-by-sequencing have opened up new vistas for exploring available biodiversity, particularly of wild crop relatives, for identifying useful donor genes.

Genomics-assisted breeding of climate-smart inbred and hybrid rice varieties.- Advanced genomics and breeding tools to accelerate the development of climate resilient wheat.-Increasing genetic gains in maize in stress-prone environments of the tropics.- Genomic approaches for climate resilience breeding in oats.- Genomic designing for climate smart sorghum.- Pearl millet: a resilient crop for arid and semi-arid environments.- Genomic designing for climate smart finger millet.
