Plant Biotechnology and Food Security (eBook, ePUB)

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...

Jyoti Prakash Sahoo is a dynamic researcher and academician currently serving as an Assistant Professor in the Faculty of Agriculture and Allied Sciences at C.V. Raman Global University, Bhubaneswar, India. He completed his M.Sc. (2016) and PhD (2023) in Agricultural Biotechnology from Assam Agricultural University, Jorhat, India and Odisha University of Agriculture and Technology (OUAT), Bhubaneswar, India respectively. His notable works include dissecting genetic architecture for Cercospora leaf spot and charcoal rot disease resistance in mung bean landraces, molecular breeding strategies for stress resilience in crops, sustainable management of viral pathogens in okra, and drought tolerance genetics in rice using microsatellite markers. He has guided 10 M.Sc. (Biotechnology) students. He regularly publishes in high-impact journals indexed by Scopus, UGC-CARE, and Clarivate, while also authoring important chapters for widely-referenced agricultural biotechnology books. He actively contributes as a peer reviewer for prestigious journals including Frontiers in Plant Science, BMC Genomics, Scientific Reports, and holds life memberships in professional societies including the Society of Biotechnology and Bioinformatics and Indian Society of Plant Breeders. His outstanding contributions to plant molecular biology and biotechnology have been recognized with prestigious honors, including the young scientist award (2021), the university best PhD thesis award of OUAT (2023), and multiple best oral presentation awards (2023) at national and international conferences. Kailash Chandra Samal is the current Dean of the College of Horticulture at Odisha University of Agriculture and Technology (OUAT), Chiplima, India. He holds an M.Sc. in Agricultural Biotechnology from Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, Coimbatore, India (1991), and a PhD in Biotechnology from Utkal University, Bhubaneswar, India (2011). With 32 years of academic and research experience at OUAT, he has taught undergraduate, postgraduate, and PhD students while conducting pioneering research in plant molecular biology, plant tissue culture, microbial technology, DNA fingerprinting, and computational biology. He has developed cost-effective protocols for the large-scale micropropagation of several crops, including banana, ginger, turmeric, sugarcane, stevia, and sarpagandha. His work includes the development of molecular marker techniques for assessing the clonal fidelity of micro-propagated plants and the creation of a DNA fingerprint database for promising rice varieties in Odisha, India. He has studied the phenotypic, biochemical, and molecular characteristics of indigenous aromatic rice varieties from Odisha, India and molecular fingerprints of other crops such as ragi, wheat, rapeseed, sesame, black gram, green gram, eggplant, and tomato. He has guided 40 M.Sc. (Ag) and PhD students in molecular biology and biotechnology. He has also secured 10 externally funded projects from Department of Biotechnology (DBT), Rashtriya Krishi Vikas Yojana (RKVY), and the Ministry of Agriculture, Government of India. A member of several professional bodies, he has published 10 books and over 128 research papers. His research contributions include the isolation and characterization of abiotic stress-related genes such as DREB, deposited in GenBank (NCBI), USA.
