The aims of applied plant science research for agriculture are to enhance crop yields, improve food quality, and preserve the environment where human beings and other organisms live. Furthermore, food quality will become more important than crop productivity in a wealthy society. From an economic perspective, plant biotechnology offers significant potential for the seed, agrochemical, food processing, and specialty chemical and pharmaceutical industries to develop new products and manufacturing processes. This book covers the foundations for plant biotechnology by outlining the biological aspects including gene structure and expression, and the basic procedures in plant biotechnology of genomics, metabolomics, and transcriptomics. It intends to cover readers with a modern perspective on plants both as biological organisms and useful resources for people to exploit.
