Plants are an important source of fats and oils, which are
essential for the human diet. In recent years, genomics of oil
biosynthesis in plants have attracted great interest, especially in
high oil-bearing plants, such as sesame, olive, sunflower, and
palm. Considering that, genome sequencing projects of these plants
have been undertaken with the help of advanced genomics tools such
as next generation sequencing. Several genome sequencing projects
of oil crops are in progress and many others are en route. In
addition to genome information, advanced genomics approaches are
discussed such as transcriptomics, genomics-assisted breeding,
genome-wide association study (GWAS), genotyping by sequencing
(GBS), and CRISPR. These have all improved our understanding of the
oil biosynthesis mechanism and breeding strategies for oil
production. There is, however, no book that covers the genomes and
genomics of oil crops. For this reason, in this volume we collected
the most recent knowledge of oil crop genomics for researchers who
study oil crop genomes, genomics, biotechnology, pharmacology, and
medicine. This book covers all genome-sequenced oil crops as well
as the plants producing important oil metabolites. Throughout this
book, the latest genomics developments and discoveries are
highlighted as well as open problems and future challenges in oil
crop genomics. In doing so, we have covered the state-of-the-art of
developments and trends of oil crop genomics.
