This book highlights the pivotal role of biotechnology in enhancing horticultural productivity, quality, and sustainability. It examines how in vitro techniques, molecular breeding, and genetic modification contribute to crop improvement, pest resistance, abiotic stress tolerance, and value addition. Special focus is placed on micropropagation, somaclonal variation, cryopreservation, and genetic transformation in key horticultural crops. The book also explores regulatory frameworks, ethical concerns, and future prospects of biotech interventions in horticulture. By combining foundational science with recent innovations, Biotechnology in Horticulture offers a comprehensive insight into the evolving intersection of plant science and biotechnology.
While packed with valuable information, some sections felt repetitive and could be shortened.
