Opis: Methods used in traditional breeding that generate transgenic plants by non-recombinant methods are widely familiar to professional plant scientists and serve important roles in securing a sustainable future for agriculture by protecting crops from pests and helping land and water to be used more efficiently. This book addresses the worldwide interest in the biosafety issues related to transgenic crops. Increased pesticide use, increased crop and weed resistance to pesticides, gene flow to related plant species, negative effects on nontarget organisms, and reduced crop and ecosystem diversity are discussed in detail. The authors, world-renowned researchers and educators, provide the basic information for a wide range of people involved in the release of transgenic crops, including researchers in the initial stage of developing transgenic products, industrialists, and decision makers. Special attention is paid to biotechnological approaches to agricultural improvement for developing nations.
