Riassunto

Designer Crops: Implications of Artificial Intelligence and Modern Biotechnological Methods explores the global impact of environmental challenges and climate change on crop productivity. This comprehensive guide reveals how abiotic and biotic stresses and shifting climatic conditions have significantly affected traditional cropping systems and crop yields worldwide. This book discusses designer crops and climate-resilient and super cropping systems by applying diverse information from biotechnology, crop breeding, machine learning, and automation in agriculture. It showcases the evolution of technologies such as high-throughput genome sequencing, artificial intelligence, and precision breeding, revolutionizing crop design for enhanced disease resistance, nutritional value, and increased yields. In addition, it examines modern biotechnological tools and speed breeding strategies, offering a glimpse into the promising future of super crop development. Contributions from leading global experts on artificial intelligence in agriculture, machine learning for smart agricultural practices, and climate-resilient cropping strategies make this book a must have for upper-level undergraduate students in the fields of crop science, biotechnology, and sustainable agriculture. It will also be useful for researchers and professionals working in food technology, agricultural automation, and environmental consulting.

Dalla quarta di copertina

Designer Crops: Implications of Artificial Intelligence and Modern Biotechnological Methods is an exploration of the global impact of environmental challenges and climate change on crop productivity. This comprehensive guide reveals how abiotic and biotic stresses, coupled with shifting climatic conditions, have significantly affected traditional cropping systems and crop yields worldwide. This book discusses designer crops and climate-resilient and super cropping systems by applying diverse information from biotechnology, crop breeding, machine learning, and automation in agriculture. The book showcases the evolution of technologies such as high-throughput genome sequencing, artificial intelligence, and precision breeding, revolutionizing crop design for enhanced disease resistance, nutritional value, and increased yields. The book examines modern biotechnological tools and speed breeding strategies, offering a glimpse into the promising future of super crop development. It includes contributions from leading global experts on artificial intelligence in agriculture, machine learning for smart agricultural practices, and climate-resilient cropping strategies. From climate-smart agricultural practices to sustainable development strategies, each chapter offers valuable knowledge and practical solutions to navigate the challenges of modern agriculture and propel the industry towards a future of innovation and sustainability. The initial chapters focus on advancements in CRISPR-Cas-mediated genome engineering, trait stacking, and multiplexing techniques, whereas the subsequent chapters dive into automation in agricultural practices, digital farming, and the integration of remote sensing and drone technologies as key components in climate-smart crop design and super cropping strategies. Designer Crops is a vital reference for upper-level undergraduate students in the fields of crop science, biotechnology, and sustainable agriculture. It is also useful for researchers and professionals working in food technology, agricultural automation, and environmental consulting.
