Breeding for Stress Resistance and Climate Change
Description:... Breeding for Stress Resistance and Climate Change is a guide dedicated to understanding how plants can adapt to the challenges posed by climate change. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in improving crop resilience, whether they are researchers, breeders, or students. We introduce the book's main goal: to explore the methods and concepts crucial for developing crops that can withstand both living (biotic) and non-living (abiotic) stresses. We emphasize the significance of plant breeding in ensuring a sustainable food supply amidst changing environmental conditions. We highlighted the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration in plant breeding, drawing on insights from genetics, molecular biology, and agronomy. We aim to provide practical knowledge and methodologies that can be applied to breed stress-resistant crops effectively. Breeding for Stress Resistance and Climate Change seeks to empower readers to contribute to the development of sustainable agricultural systems resilient to the impacts of climate change. We hope that this book will inspire and guide individuals to address the pressing challenges facing global agriculture.
