Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This contributed book covers forage crops grown in different parts of the world and focuses on the use of biotechnological and genomic techniques for breeding forage crops and their application in these crops.Forage crops are grown specifically to be utilized as feed for livestock and are typically high in nutritional value. They play a crucial role in animal husbandry, providing essential nutrients for the health and productivity of livestock, and are essential for sustainable livestock farming, as they can reduce reliance on purchased feeds and promote efficient nutrient cycling within agricultural systems. They also contribute to soil conservation and can be integrated into crop rotation systems to improve overall farm productivity and resilience. Forage crop research has seen significant advancements in the omics era, which encompasses disciplines such as genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics, and others. These technologies have revolutionized the way we understand, breed, and manage forage crops, leading to improvements in yield, quality, and resilience. This book covers the application of genomics, biotechnology, and the digital revolution in most forage crop species. The application of DNA molecular markers in these groups of plants has been elaborated. Further topics include the use of transgenic technology and genome editing in forage crops. The book also discusses the possibility of artificial intelligence application for precise breeding and production of forage crops.This book will serve as an essential resource for work done in recent years on the use of genomics and biotechnological applications for forage crop improvement strategies. Students, scientists, and breeding communities with an interest in forage crop cultivation, breeding, and the application of novel biotechnological approaches for the development of climate-resilient cultivars will find this book useful. mso-fareast-language: JA;">This contributed book covers forage crops grown in different parts of the world and focuses on the use of biotechnological and genomic techniques for breeding forage crops and their application in these crops.

Condition: Hervorragend. Zustand: Hervorragend | Seiten: 568 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | Sustainable food production is vital to ensure food and nutritional security to growing human population. Recently, there has been a shift in agricultural production system, crop production is not only considering yield as primary interest to produce higher number of calories for reducing hunger, but also more nutrient-rich food to reduce malnutrition or ¿hidden hunger¿. Micronutrient malnutrition is a continuing and serious public health problem in many countries, various Interventions to alleviate this problem have been implemented. Biofortification, the process of breeding nutrients into food crops, provides a comparatively cost effective, sustainable, and long-term means of delivering more micronutrients. Legumes have higher protein content than most plant foods approximately twice than cereals and are rich in the key micronutrients folate, niacin, thiamine, calcium, iron and zinc. This book summarizes the biofortification of legumes. Detailed information through contributed chapters shed light on legumes research relevant to human health, with key topics that include genomic and genetic resources for food security, conventional and modern breeding approaches for improving nutrition, agronomic traits and biotechnological interventions.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This contributed volume highlights cutting-edge breeding techniques in legumes, specifically targeting drought tolerance. It examines the challenges faced and explores future perspectives for achieving sustainable legume production.The dual challenges of a rapidly growing global population and climate change impose immense pressure on agricultural systems to meet current and future food demands. Climate change significantly threatens agriculture, causing substantial yield losses due to biotic and abiotic stresses, with drought being one of the most severe environmental factors impacting plant productivity. Water, which constitutes approximately 80-95% of the fresh biomass of plants, is vital for various physiological processes, including plant growth, development, and metabolism.Legumes, second only to cereals in global food production, account for 27% of world primary crop production and fulfill 33% of protein requirements. Cultivated across diverse climates and soil types, legumes contribute to over 35% of global vegetable oil production. However, drought remains a major yield-limiting factor in grain legumes, a challenge expected to intensify in the future. Drought adversely affects legumes at all growth stages, disrupting germination (through malfunctioning enzymes like proteases and amylases), nutrient uptake (due to reduced water use efficiency), growth (by inhibiting cell division and leaf expansion), and yield formation (by restricting photosynthesis).Given these challenges, the scientific community is focusing on developing drought-resistant legume cultivars to ensure future food security. This volume consolidates research efforts on advancing drought-tolerant legumes using marker-assisted breeding techniques.This book will serve as a valuable resource for students, researchers, and breeding professionals engaged in legume breeding for drought tolerance. By fostering advancements in sustainable agriculture, this volume aims to contribute to global food security and empower stakeholders in addressing climate change-induced.…

Buch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Global human population is increasing rapidly, and it has been estimated to reached 9.7 billion by year 2050. With this massive population growth, the greatest challenge is sustainable food production. The traditional agriculture system does not have capacity to meet growing food demand therefore, it is emergent to introduce emerging technologies helping farming community to precisely utilize the resources to ensure food security under climate change conditions. The technological revolution of 21st century has transformed every sector of life with no exception to agriculture. The application of recent technical concepts i.e., Internet of things, cloud computing, big data, data mining and artificial intelligence had helped farming community to make smart decisions and actions for resolving complex problems of agriculture. Precision agriculture involves the utilization of sensors, drones, and satellite imagery for monitoring for monitoring crop health, soil conditions and weather patterns therefore, integration of artificial intelligence and data science-based technologies can improve sustainability, productivity, and climate resilience. The utilization of data sciences in precision agriculture represents a radical turn toward knowledge-based decision making. The application of data science concepts can help farming community to optimize the resource allocation, real time crops monitoring, efficiently and timely harvesting and yield prediction. This synergy will not only enhance the productivity but can also promote sustainable agricultural practices.The book covers the latest developments taking place on application of data sciences for precision agriculture. It specifically focuses on the technological innovations for improving decision making, and cover various fields of data sciences and their application in agriculture production system.…
