Advancements in Plant Biotechnology: A Green Revolution for Agriculture
Author(s): Soundrya Bhatt*
Plant biotechnology has emerged as a transformative force in agriculture, offering innovative solutions to address
global challenges like food security and environmental sustainability. This article explores the remarkable
progress in plant biotechnology, emphasizing the development of genetically modified organisms (GMOs),
precision breeding techniques, and their impact on sustainable agriculture. Genetically modified crops have
shown potential in enhancing yields, reducing pesticide use, and improving stress tolerance. Precision breeding
techniques like CRISPR-Cas9 have expedited crop improvement. Moreover, plant biotechnology contributes
to environmental conservation by reducing chemical inputs and promoting biofuel production. Despite these
advantages, ethical concerns and potential environmental impacts must be addressed. Overall, plant biotechnology
presents a promising pat.. View More»
