The ever-growing global population, unpredictable climate, and diverse range of biotic and abiotic stresses demand a sustainable increase in crop production. To meet this challenge, it is essential to develop improved cultivars with enhanced genetic resilience to withstand these adversities. This book delves into these complexities and presents potential solutions to improve yield. It provides a comprehensive and coherent review of the application of various omics technologies, including genomics, proteomics, transcriptomics, and metabolomics, in crop development. It explores in detail how omics can contribute to crop science, highlighting the benefits of utilizing these technologies to enhance crop production, resistance, and other valuable traits. The book also offers a platform for discussing the integrative approach of omics in addressing complex biological problems. It emphasizes crop improvement efforts such as yield enhancement, biotic and abiotic resistance, genetic modification, bioremediation, and food security. It investigates how different omics technologies can be employed independently and collectively to improve the quantitative and qualitative characteristics of crop plants. This book is invaluable for graduate and post-graduate students in the fields of life science, including researchers interested in exploring the applications of omics technologies in various areas of plant science. It is also a valuable resource for modern plant breeders and agriculture biotechnologists.
