Chromosome Engineering in Plants

Chromosome Engineering in Plants

Chromosome engineering in plants involves manipulating chromosomes to alter genetic material for desired traits, such as increased yield or disease resistance. Techniques like chromosome recombination and chromosomal segment translocation allow scientists to introduce or eliminate specific genes within plant genomes. Modern tools such as CRISPR/Cas9 and gene-editing technologies enable precise modification at the chromosomal level, offering greater control over traditional breeding. Chromosome engineering can introduce beneficial traits into crops faster than conventional methods, making it valuable for crop improvement in the face of climate change. These advancements provide opportunities to enhance food security by developing resilient, high-performance plant varieties tailored for various environmental conditions.
