Plant breeding
Plant breeding is the science driven creative process of developing new plant varieties that goes by various names including cultivar development, crop improvement, and seed improvement.
Breeding involves the creation of multi-generation genetically diverse populations on which human selection is practiced to create adapted plants with new combinations of specific desirable traits.
The selection process is driven by biological assessment in relevant target environments and knowledge of genes and genomes. Progress is assessed based on gain under selection, which is a function of genetic variation, selection intensity, and time.
The molecular genetics is a great tool in plant breeding. With it one can find many sources of resistance (abiotic and non abiotic), predict and indicate the best crosses, can be used in genomic selection to improve the gain of selection and use used to accelerate the breeding program
