Plant Pangenomes and Pangenomics summarizes the current state of plant pangenomes and pangenomics as applied in a wide range of plant biology involving the subtopics of genome evolution, phenotypic evolution, population genetics, and evolutionary developmental biology. Explaining the resources and technologies of pangenomics with plant functional genomics, the book also presents precision molecular breeding of crops to produce improved stress-tolerance and climate-smart capacities in an attempt to improve growth, development, enhanced production, and quality. It covers key critical stressors, including temperature, salt, drought, pollutants, pests, fungi, bacteria, and viruses.

This book is an complete guide for students, researchers, experts, and professors with its discussions on all aspects of pangenomes and pangenomics, from fundamental and advanced tools and current applications in the plant sciences to plant functional genomics, plant stress physiology, plant biotechnology, plant pathology, and plant breeding.
