It highlights the opportunities the wild relatives of cultivated species offer in terms of new genes and allelic variability, as well as several other exploitable economic and environmental benefits that can be harnessed with their conservation and cultivation. This helps facilitate their use – both directly and as part of the breeding program for related cultivated species, filling the gaps of genetic variability in the primary gene pool. It also discusses how they can be used in breeding programs using conventional technologies and the biotechnological approaches of recombinant DNA. Transfer of natural genes using recombinant DNA, known as “Cisgenesis,” can accelerate the process of incorporating these natural geneswithout genetic drag of undesirable features and biosafety concerns, and beyond taxonomic boundaries, in response to the demand for new cultivars to meet the challenges of climate change and ever-growin | 出版日期 | Book 2017 | 关键词 | Wild Relatives; Plant Genetic Resources; Collection; Conservation; Breeding strategies | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-981-10-5116-6 | isbn_softcover | 978-981-13-5323-9 | isbn_ebook | 978-981-10-5116-6 | copyright | Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2017 |
