Sustainable food production is vital to ensure food and nutritional security to growing human population. Recently, there has been a shift in agricultural production system, crop production is not only considering yield as primary interest to produce higher number of calories for reducing hunger, but also more nutrient-rich food to reduce malnutrition or “hidden hunger”. Micronutrient malnutrition is a continuing and serious public health problem in many countries, various Interventions to alleviate this problem have been implemented. Biofortification, the process of breeding nutrients into food crops, provides a comparatively cost effective, sustainable, and long-term means of delivering more micronutrients. Legumes have higher protein content than most plant foods approximately twice than cereals and are rich in the key micronutrients folate, niacin, thiamine, calcium, iron and zinc.
This book summarizes the biofortification of legumes. Detailed information through contributed chapters shed light on legumes research relevant to human health, with key topics that include genomic and genetic resources for food security, conventional and modern breeding approaches for improving nutrition, agronomic traits and biotechnological interventions.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor
Dr. Muhammad Azhar Nadeem is working as an Associate Professor of plant breeding and genetics at Sivas University of Science and Technology, Sivas, Turkey. His PhD thesis was entitled “Identification of Genomic Regions for Various Agronomic Traits in Turkish Common Bean Germplasm with Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS)”. He is currently engaged in research activities involving genetic diversity assessment, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) for the identification of genomic regions, and their validation through KASP assay for marker-assisted breeding. Dr. Nadeem is focusing to perform GWAS in legumes, especially in common bean and lentil, and performing activities through national and international projects to identify genomic regions in these crops associated with mineral elements that will be helpful for the biofortification of these crops. He has a good number of publications in world-renowned and prestigious journals. He serves as an editorial board member of BMC Plant Biology, BMC Genomic Data, BMC Research Notes, Agriculture-MDPI, Plants-MDPI, Physiologia Plantarum, Frontiers in Plant Science, Molecular Biology Reports, Genetic Resources and crop evolution and Pakistan Journal of Botany. He has co-edited 1 book and written over 10 book chapters on important aspects of molecular genetics in relation to plant species. He has a good number of citations (1427) as per Google Scholar with an h-Index of 17.

In August 2020, he joined Sivas university of science and Technology as associate professor and currently working in the same university. Dr. Faheem has more than 9 years of teaching and research experience in the plant phenomes, genetics and genomics, biotechnology specially in next generation sequencing (NGS) and DNA molecular markers in plant genetics for germplasm characterization, identification of genomic regions for traits of agricultural interest, development and validation of molecular markers for their use in marker assisted selection, and genomic prediction for plant improvement program particularly cereals and legumes and also for developing strategies for preserving this precious germplasm from Türkiye, which is the hot spot of biodiversity for most of agricultural crops and also thousands of endemic species. He leaded and participated in many projects funded by national and international organizations. He supervised and co-supervised MSC, PhD and post doc candidates from various countries. He participated in many international trainings on plant molecular genetics particularly at ICARDA-Syria, Cophenhagon University -Denmark, Minnesota University-USA. He has over 100 publications in Web of Sciences database. He has co-edited 6 books and written over 14 book chapters on important aspects of molecular genetics in relation to plant species. He has extensive array of citations with over 3000 times as per google scholar with an h-Index of 29. Dr. Baloch is active member of various COST action and also serve as Editorial board member of several impacted journals such as Turkish journal agriculture and forestry, BMC Genomic data, Agronomy Journal. Biotechnology and Biotechnological Equipment, BMC Plant Biology, and guest editor for special issues in different journals and also reviewer for more than 55 peer-reviewed international journals with more than 121 verified reviews according to WOS.
