Genetic Resources in Crop Production | Biotechnology
Article shared by :
In this article we will discuss about the genetic resources in crop production. Genetic resources are the raw materials which scientists use to alter plant performance, and with which they hope to achieve the dramatic increase in crop production that will be required in the decades ahead. Another factor of concern when considering biodiversity has […]
