Legume Bioengineering: Balancing Food Demand and Global Climate Change
暫譯: 豆類生物工程：平衡食品需求與全球氣候變遷

《豆類生物工程：平衡食品需求與全球氣候變遷》提供了一本全面的指南，旨在提升豆類的生產力和抗逆性，以應對全球食品不安全和氣候變遷的挑戰。本書探討環境壓力對豆類基因組、轉錄組、蛋白質組和代謝組的影響，並提出尖端的生物技術解決方案以減輕這些影響。書中匯集了來自九個國家的15位國際專家的貢獻，獨特地將分子見解與社會經濟觀點相結合，成為推進可持續農業的及時資源。

主要特色：
- 全球策略以利用豆類應對飢餓和食品安全
- 發展中國家豆類栽培的社會經濟挑戰與採納情況
- 針對抗逆性和產量提升的遺傳資源與育種策略
- 氣候韌性豆類生產技術
- 豆類次級代謝物在壓力適應中的角色
- 基因編輯、表觀遺傳學、微生物組互動及miRNA應用的進展
- 豆類工程的當前趨勢與未來展望
- 消費者接受度、環境影響評估及政策框架

本書是從事作物改良、氣候韌性和食品安全研究的研究人員、研究生、農業科學家、生物技術專家及政策制定者的重要資源。它提供了對於塑造基於豆類的可持續農業未來至關重要的實用見解和科學創新。
