Conteúdo: | Agricultural growth is important to ensure food and nutritional security for the growing population and also is a vital to boost economic prosperity. Globally, scientists are challenged to achieve higher food production per unit of both land and water from shrinking farm size, and biodiversity erosion facing climate change. Currently, climate resilience forewarns significant threats to food security, ecosystems, economic stability, and water resources worldwide. To overcome such challenges, sustained agricultural research is needed through the judicious blend of both conventional and innovative methodologies for sustainable food production, nutritional food security, and socio-economic aspects. Crop improvement is a continuous process for the evolution of promising and improved varieties with specifically targeted traits by exploiting a wide range of spontaneous/natural and induced greater genetic variability. Plant breeders are continuously striving to sustain crop production and look for innovative technologies including mutagenesis and molecular tools such as genome editing and transgenic plants.
