About this book

Legume Bioengineering: Balancing Food Demand and Global Climate Change offers a comprehensive guide to enhancing legume productivity and resilience in the face of global food insecurity and climate change. This book explores the impact of environmental stresses on the legume genome, transcriptome, proteome, and metabolome, and presents cutting-edge biotechnological solutions to mitigate these effects. With contributions from 15 international experts across nine countries, it uniquely combines molecular insights with socioeconomic perspectives, making it a timely resource for advancing sustainable agriculture.

Key Features:

Global strategies for leveraging legumes to address hunger and food security
Socioeconomic challenges and adoption of legume cultivation in developing regions
Genetic resources and breeding strategies for stress tolerance and yield improvement
Climate-resilient legume production techniques
Role of legume secondary metabolites in stress adaptation
Advances in genome editing, epigenetics, microbiome interactions, and miRNA applications
Current trends and future scope in legume engineering
Consumer acceptance, environmental impact assessment, and policy frameworks

This book is an essential resource for researchers, graduate students, agricultural scientists, biotechnologists, and policymakers engaged in crop improvement, climate resilience, and food security research. It offers practical insights and scientific innovations critical for shaping the future of legume-based sustainable agriculture.
