Neglected and Underutilized Crops - Towards Nutritional Security and Sustainability
Neglected and Underutilized Crops - Towards Nutritional Security and Sustainability[electronic resource] /edited by Sajad Majeed Zargar, Antonio Masi, Romesh Kumar Salgotra. - 1st ed. 2021. - XIV, 266 p. 16 illus., 12 illus. in color.online resource.

Chapter 1: Neglected and Underutilised Crop Species: Are They Future Smart Crops in Fighting Poverty, Hunger and Malnutrition under Changing Climate? -- Chapter 2: Neglected and Underutilized crops: Present status and Future Prospectus -- Chapter 3: Germplasm resources of major underutilized crops -- Chapter 4: Underutilized vegetable species of Indian Himalayas -- Chapter 5: Nutritional and Medicinal values of Neglected spice crops of Indian Himalayas -- Chapter 6: Genetics and genomics resources of millets: Availability, advancements and applications -- Chapter 7: Genomic approaches for the improvement and conservation of Buckwheat -- Chapter 8: Genetic and Genomic Resources of Chestnut -- Chapter 9: Genetic and Genomic Resources in Rice bean (Vigna umbellata Thunb.): Availability, Advancements and Applications -- Chapter 10: dvancements in high-throughput omics-technologies for understanding the biology of neglected and underutilized crops -- Chapter 11: Understanding the barriers of underutilization and applicability of biotechnological tools for augmenting spice crop production.

This book covers important topics on various neglected and underutilised crops (vegetables, cereals, fruit crops). It gives an overview of the potential, availability of genetic and genomic resources, and the future prospects of these food crops. The book presents different chapters on the importance of underutilised crops with respect to sustainable agriculture and describes the approaches that must be followed for improving the yield and production of these crops. It covers a wide range of food crops such as millet, buckwheat, underutilised spices, underutilised vegetables and underutilised fruit crops. It also provides insights on what smart foods are? And, whether these neglected crops qualify as smart foods? This up-to-date and informative book is meant for food scientists, geneticists, breeders and biotechnologists. It is of interest to students, researchers and course instructors in these fields.
