CRISPRized Horticulture Crops 1st Edition

CRISPRized Horticulture Crops, 1st Edition by Kamel A. Abd‑Elsalam, Aftab Ahmad, and Baohong Zhang is an essential, timely guide for anyone working at the intersection of plant science and modern crop innovation. This authoritative volume brings the power of CRISPR genome editing to practical horticulture—showcasing how precise genetic tools are transforming fruit, vegetable, ornamental, and specialty crop improvement around the world.

Begin with clear, engaging explanations of CRISPR fundamentals and progress into real-world applications: disease resistance, yield enhancement, postharvest quality, and stress tolerance. Detailed case studies and protocols illuminate how CRISPR strategies are adapted across different species, from temperate fruits in Europe and North America to heat‑tolerant vegetables in Asia and drought‑resilient crops in Africa and Latin America. The book also addresses regulatory frameworks, biosafety considerations, and ethical dimensions that global researchers and policymakers must navigate.

Written for plant breeders, horticulturists, agronomists, graduate students, and industry professionals, this edition balances rigorous science with actionable insights—helping readers design experiments, interpret genome edits, and translate lab advances into field-ready solutions. Whether you’re developing next‑generation cultivars or shaping sustainable agricultural policy, this resource equips you with the knowledge to harness CRISPR responsibly and effectively.

A practical, globally relevant reference, CRISPRized Horticulture Crops is ideal for research libraries, academic programs, and commercial R&D teams seeking to lead in modern plant breeding. Order your copy today and stay at the forefront of horticultural innovation.
