Foreword
To address the advances of plant biotechnology, the editors, Prof. S. M. Paul Khurana and Prof. R.K. Gaur, have undertaken the thorny assignment of capturing the status and future trends in the various fields of agriculture and food and nonfood plant production systems. Plant Biotechnology: Progress in Genomic Era, delivered by the proponents of agricultural biotechnology, offers a wealth of information about the scientific breakthroughs and discoveries aiming to meet the global challenges of the diminishing amount of arable land as well as energy shortage, malnutrition, and famine. Many eminent and erudite scholars such as Prof. Klaus Ammann, Prof. Ajit Verma, Prof. S. K. Khare, Prof. A. N. Pathak, Dr. Swarup Chakrabarty, Dr. G. P. Singh, Prof. T. Satyanarayana, Prof. Poonam Singh (Nigam), Dr. Kishor Gaikwad, Dr. Senjuti Sinharoy, and Prof. Yuri Dorokov have addressed various aspects of plant biotechnology and provided important contributions for the book. The book consists of four parts, i.e., (i) Gene and Genome, (ii) Biofuel and Bioremediation, (ii
