Description
Genome and Epigenome Editing for Stress-tolerant Crops by Jen-tsung Chen provides an in-depth exploration of advanced molecular editing techniques revolutionizing modern agriculture. The book examines CRISPR, TALEN, and other gene-editing platforms that enable scientists to develop crops with enhanced tolerance to environmental stresses such as drought, salinity, and extreme temperatures.
Readers will discover how epigenetic modifications influence crop performance without altering DNA sequences, offering sustainable approaches to agricultural improvement. The text combines theoretical foundations with practical applications, addressing the regulatory landscape and ethical considerations surrounding genetically modified organisms.
Essential for researchers, plant scientists, agronomists, and agricultural professionals, this book demonstrates how genome editing accelerates crop improvement timelines and contributes to global food security in an era of climate change and population growth.
