This book provides a comprehensive summary of the recent advances
in the biofortification of plants under climate change and how it
affects food security globally. The need for mineral
biofortification to eradicate or alleviate malnutrition through
sustainable agriculture is also discussed. Biofortification of
edible plants is considered the most appropriate approach to
alleviate nutritional problems and nutrient deficiencies. In
contrast, biofortification focuses on improving the nutritional
content of the region's current agricultural biodiversity while
preserving its habits and customs. Emphasis is also placed on
recent advances and developments in omics, particularly
metabolomics and related techniques, to unravel the potential
alterations in plants caused by biofortification. The book brings
together eminent scientists to present the latest developments in
the field. This timely publication addresses practical scenarios of
bio-fortified food production and climate change. The book focuses
on the methods, techniques, and environmental changes used to
enhance and improve agricultural products. This book is one of the
first to provide information on the use of modern biotechnologies
to modify crops for health benefits. It also examines the
mechanisms of the plant responses to genetically induced
biofortification, the production and responses of fortified plants
under climate change, and their effects on food security. The book
will be useful for students and researchers, especially crop
scientists, environmental scientists, biotechnologists, botanists,
and agronomists, to understand the techniques and mechanisms of
biofortification, and responses of biofortified plants under
climate change.
