This volume, Transgenic Crops VI, includes the following broad topic sections: Oils and Fibers,
Medicinal Crops, Ornamental Crops, Forages and Grains, Regulatory and Intellectual Property of
Genetically Manipulated Plants. It is an invaluable reference for plant breeders, researchers and graduate
students in the fields of plant biotechnology, agronomy, horticulture, forestry, genetics, and both plant cell
and molecular biology.
Genetic engineering is a powerful tool for crop improvement. The status of crop biotechnology before 2001
was reviewed in Transgenic Crops I-III, but recent advances in plant cell and molecular biology
have prompted the need for new volumes.
Preceding volumes in the series include Transgenic Crops IV (2007) on cereals,
vegetables, root crops, herbs, and spices, and Transgenic Crops V (2007) on fruits, trees,
and beverage crops.
Of interest to researchers, plant breeders, agronomists, and advanced students
