Summary: "Biotechnology is technology based on biology, agriculture, food science and medicine that genetically modifies the seed, and ultimately the plant. It’s become a necessary piece of agriculture, as farmers have to produce more crops with the same amount (or sometimes less) land and inputs. It’s also referred to as genetically modified organisms (GMOs). Delivering improved varieties and crop protection through high quality seed is a vital component of modern agricultural production systems. It is critical that seed produces have an understanding of the biological factors that contribute to the development and maintenance of seed health, vigor and viability, and how those qualities are measured. Biotechnology, or genetic engineering, is the process of using living organisms to improve qualities are measured. Biotechnology, or genetic engineering, is the process of using living organisms to improve qualities of a plant by such as the plant’s ability to protect itself against damage or improving upon its ability to grow and produce. Plant biotechnology allows for the transfer of a greater variety of genetic information in a more precise, controlled manner. It allows for the transfer of one, or a few genes that can introduce traits such as better insect and wee control. Plant biotechnology, in the broadest sense, employs a range of biological, chemical, and engineering disciplines to develop the use of plant organisms in agricultural and industrial processes. Scientists, teachers, scholars, scientific managers, planners and administrators who have their interests in botanical, agribotanical, forestall, environmental, biotechnological, seed physiological, seed pathological, horticultural aspects shall certainly be benefitted by the scientific information contained in this book."--Back cover.
