Abstract:
Conventional breeding using the old techniques of transgenesis produced successful outcomes. Modern cultivars, however, requires an increasing number of mixed features, necessitating pre-breeding techniques with wild species. To eliminate linkage drag in introgression and translocation breeding, time-consuming backcrosses and simultaneous selection procedures are needed. Use of cisgenesis with traditional sources of genetic variation can speed up the crop breeding. This is particularly true for heterozygous, vegetatively propagated crops and allopolyploids. As a result, the second/ever green revolution based on cisgenesis is what India needs to address the problems with yield security, quality characteristics, and nutritious vegetables and fruits.
