Genomics and post-genomics technologies - including genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics, next-generation sequencing-based genotyping, and mass spectrometry - are becoming increasingly important in agricultural research and, in particular, for the genetic improvement of crops for disease resistance. In this book, distinguished scientists from around the world provide an overview of the topic and critically analyze the omics technologies currently being used in agricultural research. The book reviews the practical applications and implications of these technologies in the...
