Abstract

In a world where food consumption is rising, climate change poses a severe danger to feeding a growing population. Previously, increased agricultural output was achieved by using fertilizer and insecticides for improved weed and pest control. However, these techniques rely on exhaustible resources and are frequently unstable. Current developments in advanced genetics are paving the door for long-term agricultural intensification and greater global warming crop adaptability. The amount of quality genomic information accessible has been rapidly increasing as a result of the widespread usage of genome sequencing technology. The increasing availability of genomic data has facilitated the shift to plant pan-genomics, allowing researchers to easily know the diversity and available traits for crop improvement and cultivar development. These advancements enhance genomic-assisted breeding, which allows for the quick engagement of candidate genes in climatic conditions and agricultural characteristics, enabling the development of resilient crops.
