This book was released on 2024-10-17 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Billions of plants species in our planet have been facing various kinds of abiotic and biotic stresses which are ultimately leading to severe ecological damages as well as severe food insecurity challenges. Depending on the regions, abiotic stresses refer to extremely high and low temperatures, ultraviolet radiation, high or low light, salinity, floods, drought, heavy metals, etc., while biotic stresses refer to damages caused by insects, herbivores, nematodes, fungi, bacteria, or weeds. These stresses have been further accelerating and even becoming worse every day under the influence of unpredictable drastic climate change events. In order to cope with such stresses, varieties of plants and crops have been adopting physiological, morphological, genetical, and hormonal changes which are vital for ecological balances as well as for sustainable crop development. The aim of this Research Topic is to provide references on how different plant and crop species are responding to those abiotic and biotic stresses genetically while also evolving to cope with them. We welcome studies on any plant and crop species (1) which have shown natural genetic evolution or have responded to manipulated genetic transformations under any abiotic and biotic stresses (2) which have shown biochemical and physiological changes that correspond to genetic changes in response to abiotic and biotic stresses.

Book excerpt: This book is open access under a CC BY 4.0 license. This book provides a fresh, updated and science-based perspective on the current status and prospects of the diverse array of topics related to the potato, and was written by distinguished scientists with hands-on global experience in research aspects related to potato. The potato is the third most important global food crop in terms of consumption. Being the only vegetatively propagated species among the world’s main five staple crops creates both issues and opportunities for the potato: on the one hand, this constrains the speed of its geographic expansion and its options for international commercialization and distribution when compared with commodity crops such as maize, wheat or rice. On the other, it provides an effective insulation against speculation and unforeseen spikes in commodity prices, since the potato does not represent a good traded on global markets. These two factors highlight the underappreciated and underrated role of the potato as a dependable nutrition security crop, one that can mitigate turmoil in world food supply and demand and political instability in some developing countries. Increasingly, the global role of the potato has expanded from a profitable crop in developing countries to a crop providing income and nutrition security in developing ones. This book will appeal to academics and students of crop sciences, but also policy makers and other stakeholders involved in the potato and its contribution to humankind’s food security.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As per the reports of FAO, the human population will rise to 9 billion by the end of 2050 and 70% of more food must be produced over the next three decades to feed the additional population. The breeding approaches for crop improvement programs are dependent on the availability and accessibility of genetic variation, either spontaneous or induced by the mutagens. Plant breeders, agronomists, and geneticists are under constant pressure to expand food production by employing innovative breeding strategies to enhance yield, adaptability, nutrition, resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses. In conventional breeding approaches, introgression of genes in crop varieties is laborious and time-consuming. Nowadays, new innovative plant breeding techniques such as molecular breeding and plant biotechnology, supplement the traditional breeding approaches to achieve the desired goals of enhanced food production. With the advent of recent molecular tools like genomics, transgenics, molecular marker-assisted back-crossing, TILLING, Eco-TILLING, gene editing, CRISPR CAS, non-targeted protein abundant comparative proteomics, genome wide association studies have made possible mapping of important QTLs, insertion of transgenes, reduction of linkage drags, and manipulation of genome. In general, conventional and modern plant breeding approaches would be strategically ideal for developing new elite crop varieties to meet the feeding requirement of the increasing world population. This book highlights the latest progress in the field of plant breeding, and their applicability in crop improvement. The basic concept of this 2-volume work is to assess the use of modern breeding strategies in supplementing conventional breeding toward the development of elite crop varieties, for obtaining desired goals of food production.
