Molecular Breeding and Bioinformatics

Beschreibung

This book covers essential molecular techniques for crop improvement, including genotyping methods, genetic mapping, and marker-assisted selection. The book examines statistical tools for marker analysis, allele mining strategies, and gene pyramiding approaches. It explores comparative genomics, proteomics applications, and biotechnology methods including recombinant DNA technology and also includes: * Comprehensive coverage of molecular markers and genotyping techniques for crop improvement * Detailed statistical tools and methodologies for marker analysis and genetic mapping * Practical applications of marker-assisted selection and allele mining strategies * Integration of genomics, proteomics, and biotechnology in plant breeding programs * Current approaches to gene pyramiding and development of enhanced derived varieties Additional chapters address nanotechnology applications, male sterility systems, intellectual property rights, and bioinformatics tools. Designed for students and researchers in plant breeding, genetics, and biotechnology programs. This title has been co-published with Elite Publishing House. T&F does not sell or distribute the print versions in India.
