Abstract

The first edition of this book, "Molecular techniques in crop improvement" published in 2002 provided comprehensive information on the latest tools and techniques of molecular genetics and applications in crop improvement, and highlighted molecular genetics from the perspective of plant breeders. Since then, major advances have been made in molecular tagging of genes/QTLs governing complex agronomic traits, identification of candidate genes and in applying marker assisted breeding for tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses and quality traits. Recent advances in transgenic technologies, genome sequencing and functional genomics offer tremendous opportunities to support plant breeding programs. We have covered new developments in molecular biology and their potential applications in plant breeding in this second edition. The book has a total of 31 chapters and divided into 4 sections: A) Plant breeding in the genomics era, B) Molecular markers and their application, C) Genomics, and D) Transgenic technologies. The book features major topics, which are QTL analysis, comparative genomics, functional genomics, bioinformatics, DNA marker technology automation, gene-based marker systems, , application of molecular markers for tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses as well as in germplasm conservation, gene pyramiding, gene silencing, TILLING, CISGENESIS, microarray, metabolomics, proteomics, transcriptomics, microRNAs, marker-free transformation, gene targeting/homologous recombination, and genetic engineering. This book will be especially useful to scientists engaged in molecular genetics and plant breeding. It will also be a valuable book for the graduate and post graduate students specialising in crop science, genetics, plant breeding and biotechnology.

Abstract

Les OGM sont-ils contre nature ? La transgenèse végétale est-elle inconciliable avec une politique de développement durable ? Pourquoi les " peurs " se cristallisent-elles sur ce sujet en particulier ? Comment expliquer que partout dans le monde la technologie progresse, alors que les opposants continuent de manifester leur mécontentement d'une manière de plus en plus radicale ? Après s'être interrogé sur l'origine de la querelle des OGM, Jean-Paul Oury étudie de près les controverses sur les risques sanitaires et environnementaux, et les avantages socio-économiques de la technologie, et montre que la querelle ne prendra fin que si l'on réussit à renouer le dialogue. Vouloir en finir avec la querelle des OGM, en effet, c'est vouloir distinguer parmi les discours ce qui relève de l'évaluation technique et du jugement de valeur idéologique. D'actualité brûlante, cette enquête interdisciplinaire - qui pose les questions du principe de précaution et du devoir de recherche et développement - donne aux consommateurs et aux décideurs les outils nécessaires pour rester maîtres de leurs opinions et responsables dans leurs choix.

Abstract

Volume II of this series compiles the science-based consensus documents of the OECD Task Force for the Safety of Novel Foods and Feeds from 2009 to 2014. They contain information for use during the regulatory assessment of food/feed products of modern biotechnology, i.e. developed from transgenic crops. Relevant information includes compositional considerations (nutrients, anti-nutrients, toxicants, allergens), use of the plant species as food/feed, key products and components suggested for analysis of new varieties for food use and for feed use, and other elements. These documents should be of value to applicants for commercial uses of novel foods and feeds, regulators and risk assessors in national authorities for their comparative approach, as well as the wider scientific community.

Abstract

This two-volume work surveys the entire range of general aspects of chromosome research in plants. The first volume covers cytogenetics of cereals and millets with more than one chapter being devoted to the same crop to give a detailed treatment to an up-to-date status of chromosome research. This second volume deals with cytogenetics of plant materials including legumes, vegetable and oil crops, sugar crops, forage crops: fibre crops, medicinal crops and ornamentals. The book will be useful both as a reference work and a teaching aid to satisfy a wide range of workers. Every chapter has been
