The past decade has witnessed unprecedented growth and development in biotechnology and bioengineering, positioning bio-economy as a major indicator of advancement. Providing extensive coverage of new developments, state-of-the-art technologies and potential future trends, Current Developments in Biotechnology and Bioengineering is a package of nine books that compile the latest ideas from across the entire arena of biotechnology and bioengineering.

This volume, Crop Modification, Nutrition, and Food Production, provides data-based scientific knowledge and state-of-the-art information on agribiotechnology, describing world agriculture and the role biotechnology can play in ensuring food security over the next fifty years. It discusses the effects of climate change in agriculture and the resultant emergence of new crops, including drought tolerant and more nutritious plants. In addition, the book discusses insect and virus resistance in the plants and outlines plant metabolic engineering for agriculture, genetically engineered plants and microbial diseases.

  • Highlights recent developments in agriculture due to biotechnology
  • Relates the effect of climate change in agriculture to the development of new crops
  • Describes the application of metabolic engineering in the development of new genetically modified plants
