Beskrivning
Tailoring the Tomato Genome for NextGen Agriculture gives a comprehensive view of the modern revolution in tomato breeding—bridging classical genetics with modern molecular and data-driven innovations. Drawing on global germplasm resources from institutions such as the Tomato Genetics Resource Center (UC Davis) and USDA-GRIN, the book highlights how next-generation technologies are reshaping the improvement of one of the world’s most important crops.Eleven expert-authored chapters explore topics including genome editing (CRISPR/Cas), high-throughput phenotyping, genomic and marker-assisted selection, integrated data platforms like Tomato BreedBase, and breeding for fruit quality, abiotic and biotic stress tolerance, and controlled-environment agriculture. Each chapter combines theory, methodology, and real-world application—offering readers both depth and practical insight.Intended for researchers, academics, graduate students, and professionals in plant breeding and biotechnology, this book serves as both a technical reference and a visionary roadmap for sustainable tomato improvement. It illustrates how future tomato breeding will advance global food security, climate resilience, and consumer satisfaction through data-driven, sustainable innovation.
