Current Innovations in Genetics and Plant Breeding (Volume - 3), edited by Dr. S.P. Giri and Dr. Anil Kumar, presents a rich compilation of modern research dedicated to the advancement of plant genetics and breeding. This volume covers key topics such as seedling drought tolerance in cowpea, transcriptomics as a revolutionary tool, and the exploration of wild Oryza species for future food security. It also delves into strategies for improving stress tolerance in oilseed crops, the role of ideotypes in breeding programs, and the application of male sterility for crop improvement. Drawing from case studies and current methodologies, the book offers practical insights into genetic selection, hybridization, and molecular breeding. With contributions from international researchers, it serves as a valuable academic resource for plant scientists, breeders, and students aiming to address agricultural challenges through genetic innovation and sustainable practices.
