Genetic Glass Ceilings: Transgenics for Crop Biodiversity
About this Episode
This Book investigates the limitations, or "genetic glass ceilings," that traditional breeding methods face in enhancing crop biodiversity and productivity. It explores how genetic engineering offers potential solutions to overcome these ceilings by introducing novel traits and improving existing ones. The text discusses various biosafety considerations and regulatory hurdles associated with transgenic crops. Through numerous case studies of both major and neglected crops, the author examines specific challenges like pest resistance, nutritional deficiencies, and environmental stresses. The book proposes innovative transgenic tools and strategies for the further domestication and redomestication of plants to ensure global food security and sustainability. Ultimately, it argues for a more nuanced and scientifically informed approach to the development and regulation of genetically modified crops.
