tailieunhanh - An insight into transgenic development activities in fruit crop

Fruits and vegetables are often referred to as “protective foods” because they are rich in minerals and vitamins. Fruit production is severely impacted by various biotic and abiotic stresses and during the past, efforts have been made by conventional breeding programs to mitigate these problems. However, classical breeding has had little success in improving fruit plants and is constrained due to long juvenile period, genetic erosion, genetic drag and reproductive barriers that limit the transfer of favourable genes from diverse genetic resources. | An insight into transgenic development activities in fruit crop
