About the Book
Genetic Engineering and Rice Biotechnology is written primarily as an undergraduate-level textbook, focusing on building a strong foundation in genetic engineering with special emphasis on rice biotechnology. The author highlights that a clear understanding of basic molecular biology principles is essential before exploring advanced genetic engineering techniques.
Rice holds a unique global position as a staple food for nearly half of the world’s population, especially in East and Southeast Asia. Since a large percentage of cultivated rice belongs to the indica type and serves as a primary source of calories for billions, improving rice through genetic engineering has enormous agricultural and economic importance.
The book presents a detailed review of past and current developments in rice genetic engineering. It explains core molecular biology concepts, gene manipulation techniques, and practical applications in crop improvement in a clear and student-friendly manner. Each concept is described in simple language so that students can easily understand and apply the knowledge.
This book is highly useful for students of agricultural science, biotechnology, genetics, and plant science who wish to gain a solid grasp of genetic engineering and its applications in rice improvement.
