Plants are vulnerable to pathogens including fungi, bacteria, and
viruses, which cause critical problems and deficits. Crop
protection by plant breeding delivers a promising solution with no
obvious effect on human health or the local ecosystem. Crop
improvement has been the most powerful approach for producing
unique crop cultivars since domestication occurred, making possible
the main innovations in feeding the globe and community
development. Genome editing is one of the genetic devices that can
be implemented, and disease resistance is frequently cited as the
most encouraging application of CRISPR/Cas9 technology in
agriculture. Nanobiotechnology has harnessed the power of genome
editing to develop agricultural crops. Nanosized DNA or RNA
nanotechnology approaches could contribute to raising the stability
and performance of CRISPR guide RNAs. This book brings together the
latest research in these areas. CRISPR and RNAi Systems:
Nanobiotechnology Approaches to Plant Breeding and Protection
presents a complete understanding of the RNAi and CRISPR/Cas9
techniques for controlling mycotoxins, fighting plant nematodes,
and detecting plant pathogens. CRISPR/Cas genome editing enables
efficient targeted modification in most crops, thus promising to
accelerate crop improvement. CRISPR/Cas9 can be used for management
of plant insects, and various plant pathogens. The book is an
important reference source for both plant scientists and
environmental scientists who want to understand how nano
biotechnologically based approaches are being used to create more
efficient plant protection and plant breeding systems.
