500			_aGenetically modified foods have the potential to solve many of the world’s hunger and malnutrition problems and to help protect and preserve environment by increasing yield and reducing reliance upon chemical pesticides and herbicides. Yet there are many challenges ahead for governments, especially in the areas of safety testing regulation, international policy and food labeling. Many people feel that genetic engineering is the inevitable wave of the future and that we cannot afford to ignore a technology that has such enormous potential benefits. However, we must proceed with caution to avoid causing unintended harm to human health and the environment as a result of our enthusiasm for this powerful technology. This book “Transgenic Crops” contains 18 chapters covering all aspects related to subject. Book provide latest information on the technology and developments in the area of developing transgenic crops. Major chapters included in the book : Need for transgenic technology; Benefits and Risks Associated with transgenic crops; Genetic manipulation of plant cells; Techniques for gene transfer in plants; Integration of transgenes; Problems in gene transfer; Analysis and confirmation of transgene integration; Field testing of transgenic plants; Agricultural impact of transgenic plants; Regulation of transgenic crops; Intellectual property and transgenic plants; Transgenic plants and controversies; Future prospects; Transgenic crops in India; Funds for research on transgenic crops; Conclusion and recent news about transgenic crops. This book will be useful to biotechnolgist, agriculture scientist, researchers, teachers and students of plant science.
