Phytohormones in Abiotic Stress
Plants are continuously exposed to different environmental stresses that negatively impact their physiology and morphology, resulting in production reduction. As a result of constant pressure, plants evolve different mechanisms for sustenance and survival. Hormones play a major role in defences against the stresses and stimulate regulatory mechanisms. One of the ways through which they mitigate stress is via the production of hormones like auxins, ethylene, jasmonic acid, etc. The phytohormones help in signaling and enhance the chances of their survival. Plant hormones play many vital roles from integrating developmental events, physiological and biochemical processes to mediating both abiot...
Applications of artificial intelligence, machine learning, and deep learning in plant breeding
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is an extensive concept that can be interpreted as a concentration on designing computer programs to train machines to accomplish functions like or better than hu-mans. An important subset of AI is Machine Learning (ML), in which a computer is provided with the capacity to learn its own patterns instead of the patterns and restrictions set by a human programmer, thus improving from experience. Deep Learning (DL), as a class of ML techniques, employs multilayered neural networks. The application of AI to plant science research is new and has grown significantly in recent years due to developments in calculation power, proficien-cies of hardware, and software progr...
Plant Speed Breeding and High-throughput Technologies
The research field of “plant speed breeding" is promising to meet the future demand for crop improvement in an efficient and effective manner. The process accelerates breeding and research programs through the shortening of the generation time of crops. Plant Speed Breeding and High-Throughput Technologies explores and analyzes a range of innovations from CRISPR/Cas9-based genome editing to state-of-the-art controlled-environment growth chambers. The book integrates achievements of plant speed breeding technologies with an emphasis on the fundamental and advanced systems for genome editing, functional genomics, controlled-environment growth chambers, genomic and phenotypic selection method...
Novel Ways and Methodologies to Improve Crop Yield
The global population is increasing at a much faster pace than an increase in the genetic gain for food production by plant breeding. Therefore, we must find ways or methods to improve our food production if we are to ensure food security for all. This special edition is about the novel ways or methodologies that crop or plant scientists are working on to improve crop yield. This could fall under the physiological, biochemical, molecular, or even any novel technological approaches such as phenotyping to rapidly select or find traits that are vital for the improvement of current germplasm to make them resilient to an ever-changing environment. Crop yield, especially grain yield, is a very com...
Integrating Advanced High-throughput Technologies to Improve Plant Resilience to Environmental Challenges
High-throughput technologies are those that allow the generation of large-scale data related to omic analysis (such as genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, phenomics, and metabolomics). Currently, the development and use of these technologies has gone hand-in-hand with the development of bioinformatics tools, which have allowed the integration of omics-based data to understand crucial knowledge about the molecular systems that underlie the various functions of the plants. In recent years, there has been a huge development in the field of high-throughput biology, which is attributed to an era of tech startups. Genomics studies in plants, for instance, have benefited from advances in high-th...
The Impact of Abiotic Stresses on Agriculture: Mitigation through Climate Smart Strategies
Climate-smart agriculture, or CSA, is a multidimensional approach to transforming and reshaping agricultural systems to support food security under the new realities of climate change. Global changes in rainfall and temperature patterns threaten agricultural production and increase the vulnerability of people dependent on agriculture for their livelihoods, residing mostly in the world's developing countries. Climate change interrupts food markets and agro-economy, posing population-wide risks to the food supply. Threats can be minimized by increasing the resilience capacity of farmers through improving agricultural practices as well as enhancing flexibility and resource use efficiency in agr...
