Understanding these interactions is crucial for developing resistant varieties. Advanced genetic and genomic techniques, such as molecular breeding, transgenics, genomic-assisted breeding, and genome editing, have enabled the precise identification of genes conferring resistance. This knowledge has expanded the scope of designing crop genomes with biotic stress resistance. The book \"Genomics and Breeding of Oilseed Crops for Biotic Stress Resistance\" explores various aspects of biotic stress resistance in oilseed crops, including genetic diversity, gene pools, classical genetics, genetic engineering, molecular mapping, and emerging genomics-aided techniques. It also highlights case studies on genome editing for generating disease and insect-resistant crops. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Paperback \/ softback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 214 pages\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20 March 2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Springer Nature Switzerland AG\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBiotic stresses, such as those caused by insects, bacteria, fungi, viruses, and oomycetes, significantly impact crop yields, causing losses of 31-42% during the growing season and 6-20% during post-harvest stages. Understanding the intricate interactions between crop plants and these biotic stresses is crucial for developing resilient crop varieties. Advanced genetic and genomic approaches, including molecular breeding, transgenics, genomic-assisted breeding, and the recently emerged genome editing, are vital in addressing the security of FPNEE (food, health, nutrition, energy, and environment).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhole genome sequencing and genotyping-by-sequencing have provided precise information about the genes conferring resistance to biotic stresses, enabling gene discovery, allele mining, and shuttle breeding. This has expanded the possibilities for designing crop genomes with built-in resistance to these stresses.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis volume, consisting of eight chapters dedicated to oilseed crops, delves into various types of biotic stress agents and their effects on crop plants. It highlights the available genetic diversity among cultivars for biotic stress resistance, explores potential gene pools for interspecific gene transfer, discusses classical genetics and traditional breeding methods for transferring stress resistance traits, showcases successful genetic engineering approaches for developing biotic stress-resistant varieties, explores molecular mapping of genes and QTLs underlying biotic stress resistance, and discusses emerging genomics-aided techniques such as genomic selection, allele mining, and gene discovery.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBy utilizing these advanced techniques, we can enhance our understanding of biotic stress resistance and develop crop varieties that are more resilient, sustainable, and capable of meeting the growing demand for food and agricultural products in a changing climate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 557g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 235 x 155 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783030910372\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1st ed. 2022\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44307649102074,"sku":"9783030910372","price":133.27,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/noImage_1_2135ece7-ab8e-4acd-94ed-ff9efba07680.jpg?v=1688111064","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/genomic-designing-for-biotic-stress-resistant-oilseed-crops-9783030910372","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
