Publisher Description

Increasing world population, unpredictable climate and various kind of biotic and abiotic stresses necessitate the sustainable increase in crop production through developing improved cultivars possessing enhanced genetic resilience against all odds. An exploration of these challenges and near possible solution to improve yield is addressed in this book. It comprehensively and coherently reviews the application of various aspect of rapidly growing omics technology including genomics, proteomics, transcriptomics and metabolomics for crop development. It provides detailed examination of how omics can help crop science and introduces the benefits of using these technologies to enhance crop production, resistance and other values. It also provides platform to ponder upon the integrative approach of omics to deal with complex biological problems. The book highlights crop improvement such as yield enhancement, biotic and abiotic resistance, genetic modification, bioremediation, food security etc. It explores how the different omics technology independently and collectively would be used to improve the quantitative and qualitative traits of crop plants. The book is useful for graduate and post-graduate students of life science including researchers who are keen to know about the application of omics technologies in the different area of plant science. This book is also an asset to the modern plant breeders, and agriculture biotechnologist.

Author Biography

Dr. Anirudh Kumar, PhD, is a research faculty member in the Department of Botany, Indira Gandhi National Tribal University (IGNTU), Amarkantak, MP, India. Over a 10 plus year career as a researcher in the area of plant molecular biology and plant pathology. He has received M.Sc. and Ph.D. degree from University of Hyderabad and post doctorate from Centre for Cellular and Molecular Biology (CCMB), Hyderabad, India and ARO Israel. His current research interests span from antioxidants studies of medicinal plants to plant pathology.  He is author and co-author of several papers on different aspect of plant biology. He also teaches courses for B.Sc., M. Sc. and Ph.D. degree. For the past few years, his research group is trying to studies the phytochemical properties of native plants traditionally used by tribal healers of Amarkantak, MP, India. This book explores how the diverse omics technology autonomously and collectively would be used to expand the quantitative and qualitative traits of crop plants. Dr. Rakesh Kumar is a plant biologist, Assistant Professor at Department of Life Sciences, Central University of Karnataka, India. He has received doctoral degree from University of Hyderabad-India, and an alumnus of International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics, India. He has made significant contribution in the area of plant biotechnology, and published several articles in high impact journals, and received research grants from national and international funding agencies. His expertise includes functional genomics approaches such as TILLING, sequencing, transcriptomics, QTL-seq, proteomics, and LC- and GC-MS. This book provides in-depth information related to OMICS based crop improvement. Dr. Pawan Shukla completed his postgraduate and doctorate degree from University of Hyderabad. He was also a Dr. D. S. Kothari post-doctoral fellow at University of Hyderabad. Currently, he is associated as Scientist with the biotechnology division of Central Sericultural Research & Training Institute (CSR&TI), Central Silk Board, Pampore, Jammu & Kashmir (UT), India and his laboratory is working on the development of cold tolerant mulberry variety using modern omics tools. He has published several research papers in reputed International & National Journals and editor in 03 books published by CSR&TI, Central Silk Board Pampore. Dr. Manish K. Pandey completed his PhD from Osmania University, India and post-doctoral from University of Georgia/USDA-ARS, USA. He is currently leading the Groundnut Genomics & Trait discovery group at International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT), Hyderabad, India. His research interest includes reference genome, cost-effective high throughput genotyping assays, sequencing-based gene(s) discovery, diagnostic markers, genomics-assisted breeding and genomic selection. He is also Adjunct Associate Professor in University of Southern Queensland, Australia. He has also been selected as Associate Fellow/Member in two Indian national (NAAS & NASI) and two state (Telangana & Andhra Pradesh) science academies of India.
