Add to basketPlants are an important source of fats and oils, which are essential for the human diet. In recent years, genomics of oil biosynthesis in plants have attracted great interest, especially in high oil-bearing plants, such as sesame, olive, sunflower, and palm. Considering that, genome sequencing projects of these plants have been undertaken with the help of advanced genomics tools such as next generation sequencing. Several genome sequencing projects of oil crops are in progress and many others are en route. In addition to genome information, advanced genomics approaches are discussed such as transcriptomics, genomics-assisted breeding, genome-wide association study (GWAS), genotyping by sequencing (GBS), and CRISPR. These have all improved our understanding of the oil biosynthesis mechanism and breeding strategies for oil production.
There is, however, no book that covers the genomes and genomics of oil crops. For this reason, in this volume we collected the most recent knowledge of oil crop genomics for researchers who study oil crop genomes, genomics, biotechnology, pharmacology, and medicine. This book covers all genome-sequenced oil crops as well as the plants producing important oil metabolites. Throughout this book, the latest genomics developments and discoveries are highlighted as well as open problems and future challenges in oil crop genomics. In doing so, we have covered the state-of-the-art of developments and trends of oil crop genomics.
Dr. Huseyin Tombuloglu (PhD) is Associate Professor at Institute of Research and Medical Counsultaion (IRMC) of Imam Abdulrahman bin Faisal University, Dammam, Saudi Arabia. He received his BSc. degree in 2007 from Istanbul University, Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics, Turkey, and also he studied as an exchange student in University of Groningen, the Netherlands. He obtained MS degree (Biology) in 2010 and PhD degree (Biotechnology) in 2014. He bacame Assistant Professor in 2014, and Associate Professor in 2018. He has more than 15 years of teaching and research experience in Genetics, Molecular Biology, Plant Genomics, and Biotechnology, as well as Bioinformatics. He is one of the member of the International Olive Genome Sequencing Consortium. Currently, he is one of the research team member of the International Garlic Genome Sequencing Consortium (IGGS). His current research is focused on genome sequencing of plants, data analysis, proteomics, and nanoparticle-plant interaction.
