Improving inherent potential of crops for increased natural and applied inputs use efficiency, stress tolerance and favourable proximate composition changes through genetic manipulations is one of the several approaches to sustain high productivity along with high quality and nutritive value in different agro-ecological conditions to increase the global per capita food supply and hence for reducing hunger and nutrition insecurity. The demand for healthy foods and food supplements are on rise. Even in countries with high malnutrition and hunger, around 25-30 per cent of food may be wasted due to inefficient harvesting and storage. The amounts of post harvest losses of fresh produce are huge in developing countries and this also adds up t the growing problem of food insecurity. This book "Production and Processing of Food Crops for Value Addition: technology and Genetic Options" brings together a good collection of contributions on various basic and applied aspects of crop improvement for tolerance to abiotic and biotic stresses, accumulation of favourable components, heterosis, unconventional crops; Nutrition and quality aspects of food products from wheat, triticale, apple and problems due to nutrition deficiency, food processing covering post harvest processing for development of value added products for instant uses and enhancing shelf life of products and textural and nutri.…

Until recently plant breeders have relied primarily on classical tools to develop new crop cultivars providing a raw plant-derived material for further processing. With elapsing time plant breeding is becoming modernized and perceived as a multi-disciplinary and coordinated process in which a large number of tools and elements of conventional breeding techniques, bioinformatics, molecular genetics, molecular biology and genetic engineering are being utilized and integrated. With the advent of biotechnology, breeders started to incorporate rapidly DNA technology tools in their breeding work. In recognition of the current state of methods and their application, this conference addresses both classical and biotechnological tools used for germplasm enhancement and plant breeding. Economics called also green economics of plant breeding and plant products is barely touched in this conference, though it is huge in turnover terms of associated industries, employment and trade. It is estimated that in EU-27 there are around 17 million farms with more than doubled number of workforce. (jacket).…

Hardcover. Zustand: As New. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: As New. 1st Edition. World over, agricultural research and development as well as education are important facets of ensuring enhanced productivity value addition, bio-energy sustainability and environmental security. Sustainable development would entail in its objectives that linkages between productivity sustainability profitability are harnessed to uplift rural economy and consumers satisfaction and human ecology. Moreover emerging scenario of agriculture research and market trends would necessitate all concerned to possess strong knowledge base coupled with good practical and management skills. Crop improvement programmes are no longer in the domain of traditional art of selecting elite lines from populations. Plant breeding and biotechnological tools are useful for creating novel genetic variation in field crops to enhance economic yield, produce quality, input use efficiency and tolerance to a biotic and biotic stresses etc. Precise assessment of genetic variability for potential traits using morphological, physiological biochemical and molecular indices should often precede actual crop improvement pursuits to enhance the efficiency of selection and to develop crop genotypes for the target ecological environments. Crop production under intensive cultivation without replacement of soil nutrients mined in large amounts led to negative nutrient balances in soils world over. Decrease in soil fertility and imbalanced nutrient supply are one of the important factors responsible for slower agricultural growth. In many regions of the world the use or mineral fertilizers is often limited because of economic reasons limiting improved plant production on marginal soils with nutrient deficiencies and/or high nutrient fixing capacities. Much remains to be done to ensure high production in low external input environments.…
