With the predicted increase of the human population and the
subsequent need for larger food supplies, root health in crop
plants could play a major role in providing sustainable highly
productive crops that can cope with global climate changes. While
the essentiality of roots and their relation to plant performance
is broadly recognized, less is known about their role in plant
growth and development. "Root Genomics" examines how various new
genomic technologies are rapidly being applied to the study of
roots, including high-throughput sequencing and genotyping,
TILLING, transcription factor analysis, comparative genomics, gene
discovery and transcriptional profiling, post-transcriptional
events regulating microRNAs, proteome profiling and the use of
molecular markers such as SSRs, DArTs, and SNPs for QTL analyses
and the identification of superior genes/alleles. The book also
covers topics such as the molecular breeding of crops in
problematic soils and the responses of roots to a variety of
stresses.
