Legumes
in the Omic Era provides a timely review of recent advances in legume
genomics research and application. In this post-genomic era enormous
amount of biological information is available which could be of huge
potential use for crop improvement applications. This aspect of genomics
assisted plant breeding is focused throughout the book for all the
important grain legume crops. Role of functional genomics and importance
of bioinformatics tools in present day genomics and molecular breeding
research is also discussed in detail. Use of molecular tools for
nutritional fortification of grain legume is briefly presented. A
chapter also been contributed on fungal disease resistance to elucidate
potential application of genomic tools in molecular breeding of grain
legume species. The book contains fifteen chapters contributed by 50
scientists from different countries who are actively involved in
analyzing and improving particular legume genome. This book will serve
as reference resource to legumes researchers for use of genome
information in improvement of major legume crops. Dr Sanjeev Gupta is
Principal Scientist/Project Coordinator-All India Coordinated Research
Project on Vigna Crops at Indian Institute of Pulses Research (IIPR),
Kanpur. He has more than two decades of research experience in grain
legume breeding and developed a number of high yielding cultivars in
grain legumes. He is authored numerous research papers published in
peer-reviewed journals and edited several books in plant breeding
aspects. He was the Organizing Secretary of the International Grain
Legume Conference, 2009 held in the Indian Institute of Pulses Research,
Kanpur, India. He has travelled across the continents to present his
research several times. He is recipient of several awards for his
research and literary contributions Dr. Nagasamy Nadarajan is the
Director of the Indian Institute of Pulses Research (IIPR), Kanpur. He
has more than three decades of teaching and research experience and
developed more than fifteen legume and cereal cultivars. He has to his
credits more than 200 peer-reviewed research publications. He has guided
several graduate students for Masters and Doctoral degrees in food
legume breeding and genetics research. He has authored a book in
biometrics which is one of the most popular books among the agriculture
graduate students in India. He is the recipient of three international
and six national awards and honours for his outstanding contributions
Mr. Debjyoti Sen Gupta is the ICAR International Fellow and Ph.D.
candidate at North Dakota State University (NDSU), Fargo, USA. Recently,
he visited Department of Crop and Soil Sciences, Washington State
University, Pullman, USA for high throughput genotyping work. Before
joining at NDSU he was serving as the Scientist in the Indian Institute
of Pulses Research (IIPR). He has authored several research articles,
review articles and book chapters in the peer-reviewed journals and
books from reputed publishers like Springer, CABI etc. He is recipient
of several fellowships like CSIR-JRF, New Delhi; ICAR-JRF, New Delhi
throughout his graduate study programs.
