Deeply rooted in indigenous peoples’ culture and traditions, millets (also called ‘nutricereals’ are ancestral crops high in nutritional value. As the global agrifood systems face challenges to feed an ever-growing global population, resilient cereals like millets provide an affordable and nutritious option and help guarantee food security.This book presents the basic principles and practices of millets and other potential crops towards climate resilience and nutritional security. It discuses the role of millets in sustainable agriculture, the medicinal use of foxtail millet, exotic fruits in India, and climate-resilient fruit and vegetable crops.The goal of this work is to promote the sustainable cultivation of millets, also under adverse and changing climatic conditions and improving their quality, highlighting their potential to provide new sustainable market opportunities for producers and consumers.Print edition not for sale in South Asia (India, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bangladesh, Pakistan or Bhutan)

The global agricultural sector faces mounting pressures from climate change, population growth, and the urgent need for sustainable food production. As the world moves toward a population of nearly 10 billion by 2050, innovative solutions are essential to ensure food security. Plant Biotechnology and Food Security: Adoption, Farming Systems, and Sustainable Development provides a comprehensive examination of how biotechnological advancements can transform agriculture, enhance productivity, and promote environmental sustainability. This book bridges the gap between traditional farming practices and cutting-edge technologies, offering a balanced perspective on the role of biotechnology in modern agriculture.Key Features:Agricultural Evolution and Biotech Integration: Examines the development of agriculture and the need for biotechnological advances.GM Crops and RNAi Technology: Explores genetically modified crops and the use of RNA interference for creating stress-resistant crops.Genome Editing and CRISPR: Discusses CRISPR/Cas9 and HI-Edit technology as tools for enhancing climate resilience in agriculture.Genomics and Molecular Breeding: Focuses on next-generation sequencing and molecular breeding techniques for crop improvement.Precision Agriculture and Biofortification: Highlights digital tools in agriculture, biotech for plant protection, and the role of biofortified crops in addressing malnutrition.This book is an essential resource for researchers, policymakers, agricultural professionals, and students seeking to understand how biotechnology can drive food security while balancing economic, environmental, and ethical considerations. By presenting scientific advancements alongside real-world applications, it aims to foster collaboration in building a resilient and sustainable agricultural future.

The rapid evolution of biotechnology has ushered in an era in which the genome is no longer viewed as a static blueprint, but as a dynamic and editable system. The Genome Editing Frontier: Emerging Methods and Applications offers a comprehensive and forward-looking exploration of this transformation, tracing the field’s progression from foundational molecular tools to today’s high-precision, AI-integrated genome engineering platforms. The book presents an integrated perspective on how genome editing is reshaping medicine, agriculture, environmental science, and biotechnology. By bridging historical context with emerging innovations, it uniquely connects conceptual foundations, technological advances, and real-world applications within a single cohesive framework. Spanning the evolution from pre-CRISPR systems to next-generation digital and single-cell approaches, the volume highlights both the technical sophistication and the societal responsibilities of modern genome editing. Its interdisciplinary structure distinguishes it from conventional texts, combining functional genomics, computational biology, precision breeding, and ethical governance into a unified narrative of innovation.Key Features and New to This EditionComprehensive coverage from ZFNs and TALENs to advanced CRISPR systems, multiplex editing, and epigenome engineering.Dedicated sections on AI-driven genome design, predictive repair modeling, and computational optimization of editing efficiency.Expanded coverage of single-cell genome editing and high-resolution functional genomics.New chapters on AI-enabled CRISPR immunotherapies and deep learning applications in genome engineering.Integrated perspectives on ethical, regulatory, and biosafety frameworks guiding responsible innovation.Bringing together theory, methodology, and application, this volume serves as both a foundational reference and a forward-looking guide. It is ideally suited for graduate students, academic researchers, biotechnology professionals, and policy-engaged scientists seeking a rigorous and accessible roadmap to the future of genome editing.
