Recent Trends in Horticultural Biotechnology - Complete in 2 Volumes

Biotechnology is becoming increasingly prominent in the field of life sciences, providing a range of tools that can be utilized for the sustainable development of agriculture when integrated with other technologies. The application of tissue culture has been instrumental in the rapid propagation of challenging root crops and the conservation of endangered or rare medicinal plants. PCR technology has enabled researchers to better understand genotypes by fingerprinting and analyzing their genetic relationships. Additionally, genetic transformation through direct and vector-mediated gene transfer has facilitated the introduction of novel genes for desirable traits. The use of bioinformatics tools has further aided in the interpretation of complex data generated from various biological experiments. The book in question consists of 8 sessions and includes a total of 148 research articles and papers covering the topics mentioned above.
