Plant Breeding and Molecular Breeding

Plant Breeding and Molecular Breeding

Plant breeding is a method of altering plant genetic patterns to increase its value and usefulness for human well-being. The method of using molecular biology tools in Plants for breeding is defined as Molecular Breeding.  The purpose of plant reproduction is to improve the hereditary breeding of plant trimming species in order to comply with changing business demands on yield and quality. In the Breeding the most important methods are mass selection, Development of hybrid varieties and Development of synthetic varieties.

Steps Involved in the Plant Breeding:

  • Creation of genetic variation by various means
  • Selection of good parent Breeds
  • Evaluation and Release as a variety
  • Seed multiplication and distribution with the farmers.

 

We can also use organic farming through plant breeding and the modern plant breeding techniques are transgenic plants and green revolution and plant breeding in organic farming. Genetic engineering is also a method for adding foreign genes or genes to an organism's genome. A gene contains information that gives the organism a characteristic. Selection method is the oldest breeding method and is also known as the German method or broad breeding method as it has been used in Germany to improve sugar beets and small grains like rye and wheat.
