Genetic transformation is the transfer of isolated and cloned genes into the DNA usually the chromosomal DNA of another organism. The aim is to introduce new characteristics such as making a crop resistant to a herbicide introducing a novel trait or producing a new protein or enzyme. This genetic modification technology is enabling scientists to pursue exciting novel strategies for plant improvement most of which would be impossible using traditional plant breeding methodologies. This new line of investigation has great potential to benefit farmers consumers and societies worldwide. The purpose of this book is to provide an overview of the production of genetically modified plants highlighting the key scientific and technical advances that underpin their development. Topics such as promises and risks of genetic modification of plants intellectual property issues of plant biotechnology nature conservation through plant biotechnology etc. are also described in detail. This book is written for plant biochemists food scientists plant geneticists and students and teachers of biotechnology. 296 pp.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Conceived with the aim of sorting fact from fiction over genetically modified (GM) crops, this book brings together the knowledge of 30 specialists in the field of transgenic plants. It covers the generation and detection of these plants as well as the genetic traits conferred on transgenic plants. In addition, the book looks at a wide variety of crops, ornamental plants and tree species that are subject to genetic modifications, assessing the risks involved in genetic modification as well as the potential economic benefits of the technology in specific cases. The book's structure, with fully cross-referenced chapters, gives readers a quick access to specific topics, whether that is comprehensive data on particular species of ornamentals, or coverage of the socioeconomic implications of GM technology. With an increasing demand for bioenergy, and the necessary higher yields relying on wider genetic variation, this book supplies all the technical details required to move forward to a new era in agriculture.
